Field

Contents

MID

Material identifier of the associated MAT1. See comment 1.

No default (Integer > 0)

EPSMAX

Failure plastic strain εmax

Default = 1030  (Real > 0)

EPST1

Maximum tensile failure strain. See comment 5.

Default = 1030   (Real > 0)

EPST2

Maximum tensile failure damage. See comment 6.

Default = 2.0*1030   (Real > 0)

EPSF

Tensile strain for element deletion.

Default = 3.0*1030  (Real > 0)

FSMOOTH

Strain rate smoothing flag.

Default = OFF (ON or OFF)

FCUT

Cutoff frequency for strain rate filtering. Only for shell and solid elements.

Default = 1030  (Real > 0)

ICH

Hardening coefficient.

Default = 0.0 (Real > 0)

0.0 - The hardening is a full isotropic model.

1.0 - Hardening uses the kinematic Prager-Ziegler model.

Between 0.0 and 1.0 - Hardening is interpolated between the two models.

TPID

Identification number of a TABLES1 that defines pressure dependent yield stress function.

No default (Integer > 0)

PSCA

Scale factor for stress in pressure dependent function.

Default = 1.0  (Real)

TIDi

Identification number of a TABLES1 that defines the yield stress vs. plastic strain function corresponding to EPSRi. Separate functions must be defined for different strain rates.

No default (Integer > 0)

FSCAi

Scale factor for TIDi.

Default = 1.0  (Real)

EPSRi

Strain rate. Strain rate values must be given strictly in ascending order.

(Real)

Comments

1.The material identification number must be that of an existing MAT1 bulk data entry. Only one MATXi material extension can be associated with a particular MAT1.
2.MATX36  is only applied in geometric nonlinear analysis subcases which are defined by ANALYSIS = EXPDYN. It is ignored for all other subcases.
3.The first point of yield stress functions (plastic strain vs. stress) should have a plastic strain value of zero. If the last point of the first (static) function equals 0 in stress, the default value of EPSMAX is set to the value of the corresponding plastic strain.
4.When the plastic strain reaches EPSMAX, the element is deleted.
5.If the first principal strain ε1 reaches εt1 = EPST1, the stress σ is reduced by:

matx43_3

with εt2 = EPST2.

6.If the first principal strain ε1 reaches εt2 = EPST2, the stress is reduced to 0 (but the element is not deleted).
7.If the first principal strain ε1 reaches εf = EPSF, the element is deleted.
8.Strain rate filtering is used to smooth strain rates. The input FCUT is available only for shell and solid elements.
9.Hardening is defined by ICH.

10.The kinematic hardening model is not available with global formulation (NIP = 0 on PSHELX), that is hardening is fully isotropic.
11.In case of kinematic hardening and strain rate dependency, the yield stress depends on the strain rate.
12.TPID is used to distinguish the behavior in tension and compression for certain materials (that is pressure dependent yield). This is available for both shell and solid elements. The effective yield stress is then obtained by multiplying the nominal yield stress by the yield factor PSCA corresponding to the actual pressure.
13.The first function TID1 is used for strain rate values from 0 to the corresponding strain rate EPSR1. However, the last function used in the model does not extend to the maximum strain rate; for higher strain rates, a linear extrapolation will be applied. Hence, if e_over < EPSRi, the yield stress is interpolated between TIDi and TIDi-1. If e_over < EPSR1, TID1 is used. Above EPSRmax the yield stress is extrapolated.
14.Strain rate values must be given strictly in ascending order. Separate functions must be defined for different strain rates.
15.At least one strain rate is needed under which the yield stress vs. plastic strain function is defined.
16.This card is represented as a material in HyperMesh.
