/MAT/LAW41 (LEE_TARVER)

Block Format Keyword This material law describes detonation products using an ignition and growth model of a reactive material.

The Lee-Tarver model is based on the assumption that the ignition starts at local hot spots in the passage of shock front and grows outward from these sites. The reaction rate is controlled by the pressure and the surface area as in a deflagration process.

Comments

This material describes a mixture of reagents (unreacted explosive) and products (gas from detonation) for which the burn fraction is dictated by function $F (t)$ . There are two possible models to describe function $F$ depending on Ireac value:
- Ireac = 1: Original 2-term-model (1980) ¹
- Ireac = 2: Extended 3-term-model (1985) ²
  
  Where, $μ = ρ / ρ_{0} - 1$ , $a$ is a compression threshold under which ignition term has no contribution. Reaction rate is not computed if pressure is negative.
Both reagents and products are described with a JWL equation of state. The temperature dependency form is used $P (ν, T) = A e^{- R_{1} ν} + B e^{- R_{2} ν} + R_{3} T / ν$ where, $R_{3} = ω c_{ν}$ .
Consequently, a set of JWL parameters must be defined for both reagents and products:
- Reagents:
  $P_{r} (ν, T) = A_{r} e^{- R_{_{1}}^{r} ν} + B_{r} e^{- R_{_{2}}^{r} ν} + R_{_{3}}^{r} T / ν$
- Products:
  $P_{p} (ν, T) = A_{p} e^{- R_{_{1}}^{p} ν} + B_{p} e^{- R_{_{2}}^{p} ν} + R_{_{3}}^{p} T / ν$
For reagents, $B_{r}$ is negative so that the solid undergoes tension and $ω_{r}$ is set to the initial Gruneisen coefficient.
An iterative solver is used to ensure equilibrium between reagents and products: $P_{r} = P_{p}$ .
itr is the maximum number of iteration and eps is the convergency tolerance $(|P_{r} - P_{p}| < e p s)$ .
$F_{t o l}$ is such as:
- $F < F_{t o l}$ : reaction has not started
- $F > 1 - F_{t o l}$ : reaction has finished
Shear modulus is used for sound speed calculation:
$c^{2} = \frac{1}{ρ_{0}} (\frac{d P}{d μ} + \frac{4}{3} G)$
$k h i$ is a numerical limiter such as:
$F (t_{n + 1}) - F (t_{n}) \leq k h i$
$k a p p a$ is a numerical limiter such as reaction is not calculated if $Q \geq k a p p a \cdot P$ .
Where, $Q$ = Pseudo viscosity (from shock front).
$t o l$ is a tolerance parameter.
$d F / d t$ is updated using $F + F_{t o l}$ instead of $F$ in the right hand term of the 3-term-model.
This material is not yet compatible with ALE.
