<POROUS_CRITERION> elliptic_aniso#

Description#

This porous potential allows for a very general anisotropic anisotropic porous plastic material. Anisotropic influence on the direct stress components for the (ordinarily) trace operator for the pressure term are replaced with a coefficient factored trace. Anisotropic effects in the shear term can be implemented with the generally available *shear_anisotropy option in the porous plastic material behavior (which replaces the \(J_2\) term with an effective anisotropic measure of the shear criterion).

The potential is therefore:

\[3C \tilde{J}_2^2 +F \tilde{I}_1^2 - \sigma_\star^2\]

where \(C\) and \(F\) are the coefficients named C and F, and which can depend notably on the porosity variable f. As stated above the \(\tilde{J}_2\) will be as supplied by the shear anisotropy (default standard \(J_2\) measure), and the \(\tilde{I}\) is calculated by:

\[\tilde{I}_1 = p\,\sigma_{11} + q\,\sigma_{22} + r\,\sigma_{33}\]

and \(p\) \(q\) and \(r\) are coefficients (not depending on state variables).

Syntax#

The syntax follows the typical porous potential format with the 5 coefficients C, F, p, q, and r to be entered. Again, only C and F can depend on the porosity.
