Detailed Description

SmearedCrackSofteningBase is the base class for a set of models that define the softening behavior of a crack under loading in a given direction.

These models are called by ComputeSmearedCrackingStress, so they must have the compute=false flag set in the parameter list.

◆ computeCrackingRelease()

virtual void SmearedCrackSofteningBase::computeCrackingRelease	(	Real &	stress,
		Real &	stiffness_ratio,
		const Real	strain,
		const Real	crack_initiation_strain,
		const Real	crack_max_strain,
		const Real	cracking_stress,
		const Real	youngs_modulus
	)

pure virtual

Compute the effect of the cracking release model on the stress and stiffness in the direction of a single crack.

Parameters

stress	Stress in direction of crack
stiffness_ratio	Ratio of damaged to original stiffness in cracking direction
strain	Strain in the current crack direction
crack_initiation_strain	Strain in crack direction when crack first initiated
crack_max_strain	Maximum strain in crack direction
cracking_stress	Threshold tensile stress for crack initiation
youngs_modulus	Young's modulus

Implemented in AbruptSoftening, ExponentialSoftening, and PowerLawSoftening.
