DomainIntegralQFunction
Computes the q-function for a segment along the crack front, used in the calculation of the J-integral
Description
This object is used to compute the value of the function used in the computation of fracture domain integrals, as described in FractureIntegrals. The function is computed based on the distance of a given point from the crack front. It evaluates to 1 if the point is within the inner radius of the integration domain, 0 if it is beyond the outer radius, and is linearly interpolated between the inner and outer radius. In 3-dimensional simulations, this function also ramps up linearly from 0 to its full value based on its position tangentially along a crack relative to the point that it is associated with along the crack front along the segments of the crack front connected to that point.
This object is not typically directly defined by a user, but is defined using the DomainIntegralAction block. Also, this object is used only for output purposes for debugging models, as the actual value of the function used in the computation is computed by the fracture domain integral Postprocessor objects.
Input Parameters
- blockThe list of blocks (ids or names) that this object will be applied
C++ Type:std::vector<SubdomainName>
Controllable:No
Description:The list of blocks (ids or names) that this object will be applied
- boundaryThe list of boundaries (ids or names) from the mesh where this object applies
C++ Type:std::vector<BoundaryName>
Controllable:No
Description:The list of boundaries (ids or names) from the mesh where this object applies
- check_boundary_restrictedTrueWhether to check for multiple element sides on the boundary in the case of a boundary restricted, element aux variable. Setting this to false will allow contribution to a single element's elemental value(s) from multiple boundary sides on the same element (example: when the restricted boundary exists on two or more sides of an element, such as at a corner of a mesh
Default:True
C++ Type:bool
Controllable:No

- crack_front_point_indexThe index of the point on the crack front corresponding to this q function
C++ Type:unsigned int
Controllable:No
Description:The index of the point on the crack front corresponding to this q function
- execute_onLINEAR TIMESTEP_ENDThe list of flag(s) indicating when this object should be executed. For a description of each flag, see https://mooseframework.inl.gov/source/interfaces/SetupInterface.html.
Default:LINEAR TIMESTEP_END
C++ Type:ExecFlagEnum
Controllable:No
Description:The list of flag(s) indicating when this object should be executed. For a description of each flag, see https://mooseframework.inl.gov/source/interfaces/SetupInterface.html.
Optional Parameters
- control_tagsAdds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.
C++ Type:std::vector<std::string>
Controllable:No
Description:Adds user-defined labels for accessing object parameters via control logic.
- enableTrueSet the enabled status of the MooseObject.
Default:True
C++ Type:bool
Controllable:Yes
Description:Set the enabled status of the MooseObject.
- 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).
