Comments

  1. The damage law is applied to the stress tensor σ i j and damage occurs in tension, compression and shear.
  2. The input is the same as material law (/MAT/LAW22 (DAMA)).
  3. The plasticity hardening exponent n must be less than one.
  4. When ε p reaches ε p m a x , in one integration point, then the solid element is deleted.
  5. ICC is a flag of the strain rate effect on material maximum stress σ max .


    σ = σ y ( 1 + c ln ( ε ˙ ε ˙ o ) ) σ = σ y ( 1 + c ln ( ε ˙ ε ˙ o ) )
    σ max = σ max 0 ( 1 + c ln ( ε ˙ ε ˙ o ) ) σ max = σ max 0
