ZryElasticityTensor
Either provides constant elasticity constants for Zircaloy cladding or calculates the Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio for Zircaloy cladding using MATPRO relations as a function of temperature and fast neutron fluence.
Description
This class, ZryElasticityTensor, determines the Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio of Zircaloy: the user can select whether to use the predetermined constant values for Zircaloy or can select to use MATPRO functions to calculate changing values for these elastic constants.
Constant Elastic Constants
The preset elastic constant values are given in Eq. (1). The use of these constant values is the default behavior for this class. (1) Both the Young's modulus and the Poisson's ratio are held constant for the full operating temperature range of the material if the MATPRO options are not activated.
MATPRO Calculated Variable Constants
If the user selects to use the MATPRO options, the MATPRO functions celmod and cshear are used to calculate the Young's modulus and shear modulus, respectively, as a function of temperature (K), fast neutron fluence (n/m^2), amount of cold work (dimensionless) and average oxygen concentration minus the initial oxygen concentration of the as-recevied cladding (Siefken et al., 2001). The Poisson's ratio is calculated from the Young's and shear moduli.

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# This test case is prepared to test elastic moduli of zirconium alloy calculation
# using the matpro functions celmod.f and cshear.f for temperatures under the
# phase transistion temperature.
#
# - Geometry:
# Ri = 0.005 m
# Ro = 0.0055 m
# H = 0.01 m
#
# - Single element
# - Temperature = 300 - 1000 K
# - Boundary conditions:
# axial stress = -100 MPa at the top. The BC option has been changed from the
# original test's use of the Pressure action to a simplified Pressure BC that
# applies pressure to only the top surface in the axial (y-axis) direction
#
# Results:
# The strain in the radial direction can be calculated using the Young's modulus
# and the Poisson's ratio from the applied 100.0 MPa pressure.
# \f$ \epsilon_{rr} = v * \frac{\sigma_{axial}{E}} $/f
#
# The expected results for an increase in temperature under constant pressure:
# Temperature (K) strain_rr (m/m)
# 370 4.1484e-4
# 440 4.3968e-4
# 510 4.6753e-4
# 580 4.9896e-4
# 650 5.3468e-4
# 720 5.7557e-4
# 790 6.2282e-4
# 860 6.7795e-4
# 930 7.4301e-4
# 1000 8.2080e-4
#
# The final two timesteps maintain a constant temperature to demonstrate that
# the elastic properties are constant under constant temperature

# This test case is prepared to test material model ZryPlasticityUpdate
# which is a power law hardening material model.
#
# - Single element set to represent a cladding element
# - offset by one unit from the x axis, one unit wide, and two units tall
#
# - Temperature: varies with command line arguments:
# test a) 400 K (displacement rate 0.01 m/s)
# test b) 790 K (displacement rate 0.01 m/s)
# test c) 1200 K (displacement rate 0.001 m/s)
# test d) 1300 K (dksplacement rate 0.0001 m/s)
# test e) 2101 K (will error out)
#
# - Fast neutron flux = 0.0 n/m^2-sec
# - Fast nuetron fluence = 10.3e25
#
# Note that ZryElasticityTensor is used to model the Young's modulus as a
# function of temperature, fluence, cold work and oxygen
# concentration (using the MATPRO CELMOD function).
#
# Analytical Results: vary with command line arguements

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# This test case is prepared to test elastic moduli of zirconium alloy calculation
# using the matpro functions celmod.f and cshear.f for temperatures under the
# phase transistion temperature.
#
# - Geometry:
# Ri = 0.005 m
# Ro = 0.0055 m
# H = 0.01 m
#
# - Single element
# - Temperature = 300 - 1000 K
# - Boundary conditions:
# axial stress = -100 MPa at the top. The BC option has been changed from the
# original test's use of the Pressure action to a simplified Pressure BC that
# applies pressure to only the top surface in the axial (y-axis) direction
#
# Results:
# The strain in the radial direction can be calculated using the Young's modulus
# and the Poisson's ratio from the applied 100.0 MPa pressure.
# \f$ \epsilon_{rr} = v * \frac{\sigma_{axial}{E}} $/f
#
# The expected results for an increase in temperature under constant pressure:
# Temperature (K) strain_rr (m/m)
# 370 4.1484e-4
# 440 4.3968e-4
# 510 4.6753e-4
# 580 4.9896e-4
# 650 5.3468e-4
# 720 5.7557e-4
# 790 6.2282e-4
# 860 6.7795e-4
# 930 7.4301e-4
# 1000 8.2080e-4
#
# The final two timesteps maintain a constant temperature to demonstrate that
# the elastic properties are constant under constant temperature

# This test uses ZryElasticityTensor to calculate the elasticity tensor
# of zircaloy at various temperatures ranging from 300 to 2050 K.
# Lame's first parameter (lambda) and the shear modulus are extracted from the
# elasticity tensor and used to calculate Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio.
# Poisson's ratio is shown to remain nearly constant over the last several
# temperatures. This relies on adjusted correlations in the MATPRO functions
# for cladding Young's modulus and shear modulus (celmod and cshear).

# linear heat rate. At 15 kW/ft, it appears that the high power and centerline

(examples/restart/Quad8.i)
# This is a single pellet version of the BISON example problem.
# Use it to learn about the restart capability.
#
# Here's a step-by-step example of what you should do to use the restart capability:
#
# Run the simulation out to 40 time steps:
#
#
# Tweak inputQuad8.i as needed. For example, extend the end time, introduce a power blip at the end, or...?
# Then, run again using the --recover option and the recover directory that was created in the previous step
#
# ~/projects/trunk/BISON/BISON-opt -i inputQuad8.i --recover inputQuad8_out_cp/0040 (again, you can redirect or not here)
#
#
# Look at the exodus file in a post processing program (like Paraview) and see if it did what you intended.
#
# An example of why you might want to do this is if you have a simulaiton that runs fine out to 40 time steps, but gets into trouble afer that. You could run the simulation out to 40 time steps, then experiment with changes to the input file that may help the simulation converge. It would obviate the need to run the simulation throught the "easy" part over and over again, thus saving you time.
#
# Send questions to the BISON Users mailing list, or [email protected]
#
# As a supplement to this example, also included is a restart.sh script that Jason Hales wrote to test restart.
# The first thing the script does is to run the simulation as you would normally.
# It copies the output file to a 'gold' file.
# Then, it runs the simulation again, but it specifies the numer of checkpoint files and the number of steps (fewer number of steps than specified in the input file).
#
# Using information from this shortented run, the script kicks off another simulation using the --recover option, which
# uses the result at the end of the shortened run as a starting point.
# The script then compares the two exodus files. One from the original (non restarted 'gold' run) and the one from the restart.
#
# That script is included as an example and reference for commands to use when you're using restart.

# This test case is prepared to test material model ZryPlasticityUpdate
# which is a power law hardening material model.
#
# - Single element set to represent a cladding element
# - offset by one unit from the x axis, one unit wide, and two units tall
#
# - Temperature: varies with command line arguments:
# test a) 400 K (displacement rate 0.01 m/s)
# test b) 790 K (displacement rate 0.01 m/s)
# test c) 1200 K (displacement rate 0.001 m/s)
# test d) 1300 K (dksplacement rate 0.0001 m/s)
# test e) 2101 K (will error out)
#
# - Fast neutron flux = 0.0 n/m^2-sec
# - Fast nuetron fluence = 10.3e25
#
# Note that ZryElasticityTensor is used to model the Young's modulus as a
# function of temperature, fluence, cold work and oxygen
# concentration (using the MATPRO CELMOD function).
#
# Analytical Results: vary with command line arguements

# a) 400.0 9.9678e10 1.70995e9 0.183501 0.01500

# This test case is prepared to test material model ZryPlasticityUpdate
# which is a power law hardening material model.
#
# - Single element
#
# - Temperature = 673 K
#
# - Fast neutron flux = 0.0 n/m^2-sec
#
# - Fast nuetron fluence = 10.3e25
#
# - strain rate 4.17e-5/s
#
# The element is fixed at one end and is pulled at the other end.
# The stress-totalstrain curve matches with the experiment conducted at PNNL.
# The yield stress calculated by this material model for these parameter combinations
# is ~5.63e+08.
