mechanical_step_phase

Description

This behavior is given to model materials which undergo a a phase change

Syntax

***behavior mechanical_step_phase \(~\,\) **integer_steps \(~\,\) **parameter phase_id \(~\,\) **phase Oxide 0 \(~\,~\,\) *file step.mat 2 \(~\,~\,\) *rotation <rot definition> \(~\,\) **phase Alu 1 *file Alu.mat \(~\,\) **return

Example

***behavior mechanical_step_phase
  **integer_steps                 % specify integer step values to be used
  **parameter phase_id            % the parameter defining the step phases
  **phase Oxide 0                 % use this phase if phase_id = 0 (int value)
   *file step.mat 2               % This file, 2nd ***behavior instance
   *rotation <rot definition>     % a possible rotation defintion
  **phase Alu 1 *file Alu.mat     % use mat defined in Alu.mat for phase_id = 1
**return
