Stress Divergence RZ Tensors
Calculate stress divergence for an axisymmetric problem in cylindrical coordinates.
Description
The kernel StressDivergenceRZTensors
solves the stress divergence equation for an Axisymmetric problem in the cylindrical coordinate system on a 2D mesh.
The axis of symmetry must lie along the -axis in a or cylindrical coordinate system. This symmetry orientation is required for the calculation of the residual and of the jacobian, as defined in Eq. (1).
The StressDivergenceRZTensors
kernel can be automatically created with the Solid Mechanics Physics. Use of the tensor mechanics quasi-static physics is recommended to ensure the consistent setting of the use_displaced_mesh
parameter for the strain formulation selected. For a detailed explanation of the settings for _use_displaced_mesh_ in mechanics problems and the Solid Mechanics Physics usage, see the Introduction/Stress Divergence page.
Residual Calculation
The stress divergence kernel handles the calculation of the residual, , from the governing equation and the calculation of the Jacobian. From the strong form of the governing equation for mechanics, neglecting body forces, the weak form, using Galerkin's method and the Gauss divergence theorem, becomes in which is the test function. The second term of the weak form equation is the residual contribution calculated by the stress divergence kernel.
The calculation of the Jacobian can be approximated with the elasticity tensor if the simulation solve type is JFNK:
which is nonzero for .
If the solve type for the simulation is set to NEWTON the finite deformation Jacobian will need to be calculated. Set the parameter use_finite_deform_jacobian = true
in this case.
The use_displaced_mesh
parameter must be set correcting to ensure consistency in the equilibrium equation: if the stress is calculated with respect to the deformed mesh, the test function gradients must also be calculated with respect to the deformed mesh. The Solid Mechanics QuasiStatic Physics is designed to automatically determine and set the parameter correctly for the selected strain formulation. We recommend that users employ the Solid Mechanics QuasiStatic Physics whenever possible to ensure consistency between the test function gradients and the strain formulation selected.
In cylindrical coordinates, the divergence of a rank-2 tensor includes mixed term contributions. In the axisymmetric model we assume symmetric loading conditions, in addition to the zero out-of-plane shear strains, so that the residual computation is simplified.
(1)
The calculation of the Jacobian is similarly complex, requiring up to four terms in the calculation of the diagonal entries.
The axisymmetric system changes the order of the displacement vector from , usually seen in textbooks, to . Take care to follow this convention in your input files and when adding extra stresses.
