PorousMetalPlasticity object

The PorousMetalPlasticity object specifies a porous metal plasticity model.

The following topics are discussed:

Access

materialApi.materials()[name].porousMetalPlasticity()

PorousMetalPlasticity(...)

This method creates a PorousMetalPlasticity object.

Path

materialApi.materials()[name].PorousMetalPlasticity

Prototype

odb_PorousMetalPlasticity&
PorousMetalPlasticity(const odb_SequenceSequenceDouble& table,
                      odb_Union relativeDensity,
                      bool temperatureDependency,
                      int dependencies);

Required arguments

table

An odb_SequenceSequenceDouble specifying the items described below.

Optional arguments

relativeDensity

The string "NONE" or a Double specifying the initial relative density of the material, r0. The default value is "NONE".

temperatureDependency

A Boolean specifying whether the data depend on temperature. The default value is false.

dependencies

An Int specifying the number of field variable dependencies. The default value is 0.

Table data

  • q1.

  • q2.

  • q3.

  • Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.

  • Value of the first field variable, if the data depend on field variables.

  • Value of the second field variable.

  • Etc.

Return value

A PorousMetalPlasticity object.

Exceptions

RangeError.
