Viscous object

The Viscous object specifies the viscous properties for a two-layer viscoplastic material model.

The following topics are discussed:

Access

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

Viscous(...)

This method creates a Viscous object.

Path

materialApi.materials()[name].Viscous

Prototype

odb_Viscous&
Viscous(const odb_SequenceSequenceDouble& table,
        const odb_String& law,
        bool temperatureDependency,
        int dependencies);

Required arguments

table

An odb_SequenceSequenceDouble specifying the items described below.

Optional arguments

law

An odb_String specifying the creep law. Possible values are "STRAIN", "TIME", and "USER". The default value is "STRAIN".

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

If law=STRAIN or law=TIME, the table data specify the following:

  • A.

  • n.

  • m.

  • f.

  • 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.

If law=USER, the table data specify the following:

  • f.

  • 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 Viscous object.

Exceptions

None.

Members

The Viscous object has members with the same names and descriptions as the arguments to the Viscous method.

In addition, the Viscous object can have the following member:

Prototype

odb_Potential potential() const;
potential

A Potential object.
