MixedModeEquivalentK

Computes the mixed-mode stress intensity factor given the , , and stress intensity factors

Description

This class computes an equivalent stress intensity factor for a crack under mixed-mode loading as a function of the stress intensity factors for the individual modes (, , and for modes , , and , respectively): where is the Poisson's ratio. This object is a VectorPostprocessor, and the individual stress intensity factors are computed by individual VectorPostprocessors.

This object is not typically defined directly by a user, but is set up automatically using the equivalent_K parameter in DomainIntegralAction.

Required Parameters

  • contains_complete_historyFalseSet this flag to indicate that the values in all vectors declared by this VPP represent a time history (e.g. with each invocation, new values are added and old values are never removed).

    C++ Type:MaterialPropertyName

    Controllable:No

    Description:An optional suffix parameter that can be appended to any attempt to retrieve/get material properties. The suffix will be prepended with a '_' character.
