ComputeAxisymmetric1DSmallStrain / ADComputeAxisymmetric1DSmallStrain

Compute a small strain in an Axisymmetric 1D problem

Description

ComputeAxisymmetric1DSmallStrain computes the small total strain for a 1D axisymmetric generalized plane strain model. When the solid mechanics action is used with use_automatic_differentiation = true, the action selects ADComputeAxisymmetric1DSmallStrain for the same strain formulation.

This material assumes symmetry about the axis and must be used on blocks with COORD_TYPE = RZ. The radial coordinate is the physical coordinate. In the 1D strain tensor, MOOSE maps the radial strain to the rr or xx component, the generalized plane strain to the axial yy component, and the hoop strain to the zz component. The stress divergence is handled by the axisymmetric RZ kernels, such as StressDivergenceRZTensors.

The out-of-plane strain can be supplied by either "scalar_out_of_plane_strain" or "out_of_plane_strain", but not both. Scalar out-of-plane strain values are commonly used by Generalized Plane Strain models. If multiple scalar components are coupled, "subblock_index_provider" selects which scalar component applies to the current element; without that user object, component 0 is used.

For the AD object, current displacement and out-of-plane strain values are AD values. This total small-strain formulation does not use an old-state strain.

1D Axisymmetric Strain Formulation

The axisymmetric model uses the cylindrical coordinates, , , and , where the line in the direction is rotated about the axis in the direction.

The definition of a small total linearized strain is (1) In this axisymmetric 1D formulation, the strain tensor is diagonal: (2) with components (3) where is the supplied out-of-plane strain. In the MOOSE tensor storage for this 1D formulation, the generalized plane strain component is stored in yy and the hoop component is stored in zz.

  • search_methodnearest_node_connected_sidesChoice of search algorithm. All options begin by finding the nearest node in the primary boundary to a query point in the secondary boundary. In the default nearest_node_connected_sides algorithm, primary boundary elements are searched iff that nearest node is one of their nodes. This is fast to determine via a pregenerated node-to-elem map and is robust on conforming meshes. In the optional all_proximate_sides algorithm, primary boundary elements are searched iff they touch that nearest node, even if they are not topologically connected to it. This is more CPU-intensive but is necessary for robustness on any boundary surfaces which has disconnections (such as Flex IGA meshes) or non-conformity (such as hanging nodes in adaptively h-refined meshes).
