Comments

  1. String based labels allow for easier visual identification, including when being referenced by other entries (example, the MID field of properties). For more details, refer to String Label Based Input File.
  2. Information for TYPE=NLELAST:
    Analysis type
    Supported for Explicit Dynamic analysis.
    Tables
    Supported with TABLES1 and TABLEG.
    Additional remarks
    H, YF, HR, and LIMIT1 will not be used.
  3. For elastoplastic materials, the elastic stress-strain matrix is computed from the MAT1 entry, and the isotropic plasticity theory is used to perform the plastic analysis.

    Either the table identification TID or the work hardening slope H may be specified, but not both.

  4. If TID is given, TABLES1, TABLEG , TABLEST or TABLEMD entries (Xi,Yi) of stress-strain data ( ε x,Yx) must conform to the following rules:
    Entity TYPE = PLASTIC TYPE = NLELAST
    Quadrant Plastic stress-strain curve must be defined in the first quadrant only. Full stress-strain curve may be defined in the first and third quadrants to accommodate different uniaxial compression data.
    First point If TYPSTRN = 0,
    • First point must be at the origin (X1 = 0, Y1 = 0).
    • Second point (X2, Y2) must be the initial yield stress (Y2=LIMIT1) at initial yield strain (X2=LIMIT1/E).

    The slope of the line joining the origin to the initial yield stress must be equal to the value of E.

    If TYPSTRN = 1,
    • First point (X1, Y1) is corresponding to initial yield stress (Y1=LIMIT1), with zero equivalent plastic strain (X1=0).
    If the curve is defined only in the first quadrant, then the curve must start at the origin (X1 = 0.0, Y1 = 0.0).
    Additional details The data points must be in ascending order.
    If TYPSTRN = 1,
    • TID may reference a TABLEST entry.

    In this case, the above rules apply to all TABLES1 tables pointed to by TABLEST.

    • In case of small deformations, the true and the engineering stress-strain curves are almost the same, so either of them can be used in the table definition.
    • In case of large deformations, the true stress-strain curve should be used.
    • If the deformations exceed the values defined in the table, linear extrapolated is done.
  5. When TID refers to TABLEMD, the following applies:
    Xi_j Implicit analysis (NLSTAT/NLTRAN for SMDISP/LGDISP) Explicit analysis
    Xi_1 Equivalent plastic strain. This can be used for both rate-dependent and independent problems. Represents plastic or total strain in case of rate-independent problems.
    Xi_2 Represents plastic strain rate in case of rate-dependent problems

    If only one value of X2 is specified, it is still rate independent.

    Represents plastic or total strain rate in case of rate-dependent problems.
    Xi_3 Temperature. N/A
  6. Information about rate dependent plasticity:
    Entity Implicit analysis (NLSTAT/NLTRAN for SMDISP/LGDISP) Explicit analysis
    Activation Rate dependent plasticity can be activated by specifying TABLEMD ID in the TID field. This uses a piecewise linear function. Rate dependent plasticity can be activated by several ways –
    • Specifying TABLEMD ID in TID field. This uses a piecewise linear function.
    • Johnson Cook model (only when strain rate is greater than RSTRT).
    • Crushable Foam model.
    • Cowper Symonds model.
    Elements Solid elements only. Shell and solid elements.
    Temperature dependent rate dependent plasticity Supported. The temperature-dependence is defined by referencing a TABLEST entry via the TID field. Not supported.
    TABLEMD definition A maximum of 4 fields can be used in TABLEMD, which represent –
    • Yield stress
    • Equivalent plastic strain
    • Plastic strain rate
    • Temperature

    Currently, only experimental data can be used. A stress-strain curve at zero plastic strain rate must be provided.

    A maximum of 3 fields can be used in TABLEMD, which represent –
    • Yield stress
    • Equivalent plastic strain
    • Plastic/total/volumetric strain rate
    Supported strain rates Only plastic strain rate is supported. Hence, total strain rate input (TYPSTRT=0) is ignored. Plastic/total/volumetric strain rate is supported.
    Additional remarks Total strain input (TYPSTRN=0) is not supported and ignored.

    Hence, the second column in TABLEMD must be the equivalent plastic strain.

    Mixed hardening (HR=1, 2, 3 or real value) can be combined with rate dependent plasticity (TID=TABLEMD).

  7. Kinematic hardening and mixed hardening are supported:
    Supported Entity Implicit analysis (NLSTAT/NLTRAN for SMDISP/LGDISP) Explicit analysis
    Elements Solid elements only. Shell and solid elements.
  8. The conversion of the stress versus total strain (TYPSTRN=0) into stress versus plastic strain (TYPSTRN=1) is illustrated in Figure 1. This is clearly different than simply shifting the entire table along the epsilon-axis.


    Figure 1.
  9. Element support restrictions for MATS1:
    Element type Restriction
    Second order shell elements (CTRIA6 and CQUAD8).
    • MATS1 is not supported.
    CROD, CONROD, CBAR and CBEAM
    • MATS1 is supported in the axial translational direction only.
    • The behaviors in other directions remain elastic.
    • That is, the torsional deformation of CROD/CONROD elements or the shear, bending and torsional deformations of CBAR/CBEAM elements remain elastic.
  10. Information on the Johnson-Cook model:
    Entity Details
    Analysis type Supported only for Explicit Dynamic analysis.
    Strain rate dependency Activated only when strain rate is greater than reference strain rate.

  11. Information on the Crushable Foam model:
    Entity Details
    Analysis type Supported only for explicit dynamic analysis.
    TSC definition Defined as a positive stress value which indicates the yield stress of crushable foam under tensile loading
    Table definition
    The yield stress of crushable foam under compression loading can be given by a rate independent table (TABLES1), where the following rules apply.
    • x values in the table are the volumetric strain (all positive values indicate that the volume is compressed). The volumetric strain is defined as γ = 1 V V 0 MathType@MTEF@5@5@+= feaagKart1ev2aaatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbuLwBLn hiov2DGi1BTfMBaeXatLxBI9gBaerbd9wDYLwzYbItLDharqqtubsr 4rNCHbGeaGqiVu0Je9sqqrpepC0xbbL8F4rqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq=Jc9 vqaqpepm0xbba9pwe9Q8fs0=yqaqpepae9pg0FirpepeKkFr0xfr=x fr=xb9adbaqaaeGaciGaaiaabeqaamaabaabaaGcbaGaeq4SdCMaey ypa0JaaGymaiabgkHiTmaalaaabaGaamOvaaqaaiaadAfadaWgaaWc baGaaGimaaqabaaaaaaa@3CF7@ .
    • y values in the table are the compression yield stress (all positive values).
      Note: Since crushable foam is based on volumetric strain-based definition, TYPSTRN = 0 (default) is invalid and TYPSTRN = 1 must be specified.
    • First entry will be x=0, y=y_0 (the initial compressive yield stress).
    • All xi should be positive and in increasing order.

  13. Information on using combined hardening:
    Entity Details
    Analysis type Supported only for Implicit analysis (NLSTAT/NLTRAN for SMDISP/LGDISP)
    Element type Supported only for solid elements
    Rate dependent plasticity with combined hardening Not supported, thus TID field is ignored
    Flexibility in combination Both NLKIN and NLISO support either parameter or stress-strain curve input.

    They can be combined flexibly, for example NLKIN with parameter input (PARAM) and NLISO with stress-strain curve input (TABLE).

    At least one type of nonlinear hardening should be defined. For more information refer to the Combined Hardening of von Mises Plasticity.

  14. Information on using NLKIN or NLISO:
    Entity Details
    Analysis type Supported only for Implicit analysis (NLSTAT/NLTRAN for SMDISP/LGDISP)
    Temperature dependency When TYPKIN = HALFCYCL or TYPISO = TABLE, multiple curves can be provided one after each other. The last column temperature (TEMP) should be in ascending order.When TYPKIN/TYPISO = PARAM, the parameters can be temperature dependent, with TEMP specified in ascending order.
    Parameter fitting (for TABLE/HALFCYCL) The Levenberg-Marquardt method is used.

    The parameters are printed in the .out file for each temperature.

    Equivalent plastic strain determination For NLKIN, it is usually sourced directly from the first cycle of the experiment. For NLISO, it is usually sourced from cyclic loading experiments.
    Additional remarks If both NLKIN and NLISO use PARAM format, then the initial yield stress SIGY0 should be the same for the same temperature.

    After the continuation line, user can input the data block with an unlimited number of continuation lines.

  15. When TYPKIN=PARAM, if the number of back stresses is equal to or greater than 4, multiple continuation lines can be used to define the complete set of parameters (C1-C10, G1-G10), check the example above.
