Comments
- Support information for MATTVE is:
Supported Analysis Types Supported Elements Nonlinear static and Nonlinear transient, for both small and large displacement cases CHEXA, CTETRA, CPENTA, and CPYRA - The temperature effect on the viscoelastic material is introduced by
the thermo-rheologically simple temperature effects:Where,
- The reduced time given by:
- Shift function
- Temperature
- For temperature-dependent material table lookup for an element with different temperatures at each node, the average temperature of all nodes of the element is considered as reference temperature for table lookup for that particular element.
- Two forms of shift functions are supported:
- Williams-Landel-Ferry form
- Arrhenius form
- Williams-Landel-Ferry form
