USER’S MANUAL - multiPlas 5.0.679, May, 2013

1 INTRODUCTION

This manual describes the use of Dynardo’s software product multiPlas for ANSYS. multiPlas is a library of elasto-plastic material models for ANSYS.

The elasto-plastic material models in multiPlas, enable the user to simulate elasto-plastic effects of artifi-cial materials, e.g. steel or concrete, and natural born materials, e.g. soil or rock, in geotechnics, civil en-gineering - as well as - mechanical engineering.

In the context of finite element calculations with ANSYS, multiPlas provides an efficient and robust algo-rithm for the handling of single and multi-surface plasticity. The material models are based on elasto-plastic flow functions with associated and non-associated flow rules. One special feature of the multiPlas material models is the combination of isotropic and anisotropic yield conditions.

The multiPlas material models are available for structural volume elements, e.g. SOLID 185 or SOL-ID 186, structural shell elements, e.g. SHELL 181 or SHELL 281, and structural plane elements assuming plane stress, plane strain or axisymmetric conditions, e.g. PLANE 182 or PLANE 183.

The following material models and features are provided:

Additionally, all Mohr-Coulomb Models are coupled with a tension cut-off yield surface.

In simulations of joint materials (e.g. jointed rock), it is possible to arrange the joint sets arbitrarily. Isotropic and anisotropic Mohr-Coulomb yield surfaces can be combined in manifold ways. Up to 4 joint sets can be associated with an isotropic strength definition.

MultiPlas has been successfully applied in nonlinear simulations of and concrete as well as in stability analysis of soil or jointed rock.

USER’S MANUAL - multiPlas 5.0.679, May, 2013

2 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS multiPlas is provided either as customized executable (ANSYS.EXE) for ansys or as a dll (usermatLib.dll).

2.1 Dll-version The custom executable multiPlas package is delivered as a single zip-file, e.g. multiP-lasDll_5_0_679_ansys145_64bit.zip. Please extract this file into an arbitrary directory, e.g. C:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc\v145. A new sub-directory, multiPlasDll_5.0.679 is created. Please notice the full path to your multiPlas installation. There is no further installation required for multiPlas.

2.1.1 How to use ANSYS with multiPlasDll In order to use the multiPlas dll in your simulations (ANSYS Mechanical APDL or ANSYS workbench) the environment variable ANS_USER_PATH must be set before starting ANSYS. The variable can be set globally for the user in the Windows Control Panel (Systemsteuerung):

• WindowsXP: 1. “Systemsteuerung” öffnen 2. “System” öffnen 3. auf Tab “Erweitert” wechseln 4. “Umgebungsvariablen” auswählen 5. “Neu” auswählen 6. unter “Name der Variablen” ANS_USER_PATH eintragen 7. unter “Wert der Variablen” den absoluten Pfad zur multiPlas dll eintragen 8. Mit „Ok“ die Änderungen bestätigen

• Windows 7: 1. „Systemsteuerung“ öffnen 2. eventuell „Benutzerkonten und Jugendschutz“ öffnen 3. „Benutzerkonten“ öffnen 4. „Eigene Umgebungsvariablen ändern“ auswählen 5. „Neu“ auswählen 6. unter „Name der Variablen“ ANS_USER_PATH eintragen 7. unter „Wert der Variablen“ absoluten Pfad zur multiPlas dll eintragen 8. Mit „Ok“ die Änderungen bestätigen

After setting this variable ANSYS can be started in the standard way. Alternatively, the variable can be set on the command line:

set ANS_USER_PATH=<multiPlasDllDir> where <multiPlasDllDir> must be replaced by the full (absolute) path to your multiPlas dll installation. AN-SYS (mechanical APDL or workbench) must be started from the same command line. Otherwise this va-riable is not known to ANSYS. If this variable was successfully set the following message can be found in the ANSYS output: User Link path (ANS_USER_PATH): <multiPlasDllDir> where <multiPlasDllDir> should be the full (absolute) path to the multiPlas dll.

2.2 Custom executable-version The custom executable multiPlas package is delivered as a single zip-file, e.g. multiP-las_5_0_679_ansys145_64bit.zip. Please extract this file into an arbitrary directory, e.g. C:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc\v145. A new sub-directory, multiPlas_5.0.679 is created. Please notice the full path to your multiPlas installation. There is no further installation required for multiPlas.

2.2.1 How to start ANSYS Mechanical APDL with multiPlas The ANSYS Mechanical APDL Product Launcher can be used to start ANSYS Mechanical APDL with multiPlas. After starting the launcher, choose the “Customization/Preferences” tab. In the field “Custom ANSYS executable” browse to the ANSYS.EXE in your multiPlas installation directory.

3 THEORY OF THE MULTIPLAS MATERIAL MODELS IN ANSYS

3.1 Basics of elasto-plasticity in multiPlas The material models in multiPlas uses a rate-independent plasticity. The material models are characte-rized by the irreversible strain that occurs once yield criteria are violated. It is assumed that the total strain vector can be divided into an elastic part and a plastic part.

pleltot εεε += (3-1) where: εel – elastic strain vector (EPEL) εpl – plastic strain vector (EPPL) The plastic strains are assumed to develop instantaneously, that is, independent of time. The elastic stress domain is limited by the yield criterion

0),( ≤κσF (3-2) where: σ - stress vector κ - hardening parameter If the computed (trial) stress, using the elastic deformation matrix, exceeds the yield criteria (F>0), then plastic strain occurs. The evolution of plastic strains is computed using the flow rule

σ

λε∂∂= Q

d pl (3-3)

where: λ - plastic multiplier (which determines the amount of plastic strains) Q - plastic potential (which determines the direction of plastic strains)

The plastic strains reduce the stress state so that it satisfies the yield criterion (F=0). By using associated flow rules, the plastic potential is equal the yield criterion and the direction of plastic strains is perpendicu-larly to the yield surface. FQ = (3-4) By using non-associated flow rules FQ ≠ (3-5) effects that are known from experiments, like dilatancy, can be reproduced more realistically. The hardening / softening function Ω(κ) describes the expansion and/or the reduction of the initial yield surface as well as the translation of the yield criterion in the stress domain. For the strain driven harden-ing/softening equations in multiPlas the scalar value κ serves as a weighting factor for plastic strain.

pleq

pl ddd εεκκ == )( (3-6)

The introduction of separate softening functions for each strength parameter allows the formulation of an orthotropic softening model which depends on the failure mode. Existing relations, for example shear-tension interaction (mixed mode), can be described by the model. The numerical implementation of the plasticity models is carried out using the return-mapping method [6-17], [6-18], [6-22]. The return mapping procedure is applied at integration point level for the local itera-tive stress relaxation. It consists of two steps: 1. elastic predictor step:

2. plastic corrector step (local iterative procedure):

3.2 Multisurface plasticity The consideration of different failure modes rsp. failure mechanisms of a material is possible by a yield surface built up from several yield criteria. In the stress domain then a non-smooth multisurface yield cri-terion figure develops. The elastic plastic algorithm has to deal with singularities at intersections from different yield criteria (e.g. F1 to F2 as represented in Fig. 3-1).

pl2dε

F1 F2

Fig. 3-1 Intersection between the two flow criteria F1 and F2 The consistent numerical treatment of the resulting multi-surface plasticity must deal with the possibility that many yield criteria are active simultaneously. This leads to a system of n=j equations:

The solution of this system of equations generates the stress return to flow criteria or within the intersection of flow criterias. Contrary to single surface plasticity exceeding the flow criterion is no longer a sufficient criterion for activity of the plastic multiplier for each active yield criterion. An activity criterion needs to be checked.

0d j ≥λ (3-10) This secures that the stress return within the intersection is reasonable from a physical point of view.

3.3 Computed yield surfaces

3.3.1 Introduction yield surfaces of basic material model s

Fig. 3-2 Cut in the deviator plane of different flo w figures Miscellaneous yield criteriona of soil or rock mechanics generally describe flow figures which lie in be-tween the flow figure of Mohr-Coulomb and of Drucker-Prager. . The difference in the area, surrounded by the yield surface (elastic stress domain) in the deviator-cut-plane, is 15% at its maximum. In the standard literature of soil mechanics, the general usage of Mohr-Coulomb material models is sug-gested. Yield graphs according to Drucker and Prager do in fact generally overestimate the bearing strength. For brittle materials (concrete/rock) composite flow conditions on the basis of Mohr-Coulomb as well as composite flow conditions on the basis of Drucker-Prager are used in the standard literature.

The yield condition is shown in Fig. 3-9 and Fig. 3-10 in different coordinate systems. The comparison with the concrete model made by Ottosen [6-15] is shown in Fig. 3-9 and illustrates the advantages of the Drucker-Prager model consisting of two yield criteria. While there is a very good correspondence in the compressive domain, the chosen Drucker-Prager model can be well adjusted to realistic tensile strength. In opposite to that, the Ottosen model overestimates these areas significantly! A further advantage lies within the description of the yield condition using the three easily estimable and generally known parameters Rz, Rd and Ru.

3.3.6.1 Nonlinear deformation behaviour in case of pressure load In general the uniaxial stress-strain relationship of concrete is characterized by three domains: A linear elastic domain which generally reaches up to about a third of the compressive strength. This is followed by an increasingly bent run until the compressive strength is reached. The

nonlinear relation between stress and strain is caused by an initially small number of micro-cracks which merge with higher stress levels.

The achievement of the compressive strength is associated with the forming of fracture surfaces and cracks which are aligned parallel to the largest main stress.

The softening area is characterized by a decreasing strength. Finally, it leads to a low residual strain level. The slope of the decreasing branch is a measure for the brittleness of the material.

Fig. 3-11 shows the typical nonlinear stress-strain relation of normal concrete in uniaxial compressive tests [6-9].

Thereby linear softening (mlaw = 0, 2) or parabolic-exponential softening (mlaw = 1) can be chosen. Up to reaching the strain εu the parabola equation (as seen in Fig. 3-11) is used.

3.3.6.2 Nonlinear deformation behavior during tensi le load Concrete tends to soften relatively brittle with local appearances of cracks. For including this into the context of a continuum model, a homogenized crack and softening model is needed. The crack itself does not appear in the topology description of the structure - but is described by its impact on stress and deformation state [6-16],[6-21]. The softening process is formulated respectively to the energy dissipation caused by the occurance of cracks. For the complete cracking, the fracture energy concerning the crack surface has to be Gf -dissipated. The used model has its origin within the crack band theory of Bažant / Oh [6-6]. It states that cracks develop within a local process zone. Its width hPR (crack band width) is a material specific constant. To avoid a mesh dependency of the softening and to assess the fracture energy correctly, a modification of the work equation is necessary. For a given width of the crack band and a given fracture energy, the volume fracture energy can be computed via:

PR

ff h

Gg = (3-22)

where: gf volume fracture energy Gf fracture energy hPR crack band width For meshing of the structure with elements which are larger than the expected width of the crack band the stress-strain relationship has to be modified in such a way that the volume fracture energy reaches the following value:

This model guaranties a consistent dissipation of fracture energy during the softening process for different sizes of elements. The stress-strain lines available in multiPlas are shown in Fig. 3-13. Thereby, a linear elastic behaviour is assumed until the tensile strength is reached. After that, one of the following is assumed as consequence of tensile fracturing: ** linear softening until the strain limit is reached εtr (mlaw = 0, 2) or ** exponential softening (mlaw = 1)

3.4 Dilatancy The strict adherence of the stability postulations of Drucker usually requires an associated yield constitu-tive law (e.g. dilatancy angle = friction angle). But in reality, for some materials, the calculated volume strains are significantly larger than those, determined by experiments. In that cases, a deformation beha-viour closer to reality can be described by using non-associated flow rules. The dilatancy angle describes the ratio of normal and shear translation in the Mohr-Coulomb shear criterion. It has two limits: Dilatancy angle = friction angle => maximum plastic normal strain at shear strain, associated plasticity Dilatancy angle = 0.0 => no plastic normal strain at shear (not recommended limit case because of result-ing numerical problems) By replacing the friction angle ϕ by the dilatancy angle ψ within the yield condition (rsp. plastic potential function), a non-associated flow rule is obtained. In addition to that it has to be considered, that the dila-tancy angle is only physically reasonable for dilatancy angle ψ ≤ friction angle ϕ. A dilatancy angle larger than the friction angle leads to generation of energy within the system. For the Drucker-Prager yield condition, the plastic deformation behaviour can be controlled via a non-associated flow rule by manipulating the dilatancy factor δ. Then the plastic potential is modified accord-

ing to the equations ( mSQ σδβ+σ= (3-18) and ( (3-21). Thereby: dilatancy factor δ = 1 => associated plasticity dilatancy factor δ ≤ 1 => non-associated plasticity For the compressive domain 0 ≤ δc ≤ 1 is true. In the tensile domain of the Drucker-Prager, a yield condi-tion of δt = 0,1 ... 0,25 is recommended. In case of prevalent shear strain, the dilatancy factor δ can be calculated via the ratio of the beta values from Fig. 3-8 with the help of the friction angle ϕ and the dilatancy angle ψ. From equation (4.1), this could calculated by:

( )( )ϕ+

ϕ⋅=ϕβsin33

sin6 ( )

( )ψ+ψ⋅=ψβ

sin33

sin6

( )( )ψβϕβδ = (3-25)

Please note that a non-associated flow rule however lead to asymmetric deformation matrices and may result in pure convergence behaviour.

MultiPlas is activated and the multiPlas material model is defined by following APDL commands:

TB,USER,mat,,80 ! mat – material number TBDATA,1,LAW, , , ! allocation of the data field with the selected material model (LAW) and the

! material parameters (see the following sections 4.2) The nonlinear material parameters of the multiPlas material model must be provided in the TBDATA-field.

The linear elastic material properties (Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, shear modulus) must be pro-vided in the standard ANSYS way. In ANSYS mechanical APDL the linear elastic properties can be de-fined by following commands (assuming isotropic behavior):

EX,mat,youngs_modulus NUXY,mat,poisons_ratio

Please refer to the ANSYS manual for the full definition of an orthotropic material. In ANSYS workbench the linear elastic material properties must be defined in “material data” or “engineering data” in your work-bench project.

In addition the number of state variables must be defined for the multiPlas material model using the fol-lowing APDL command:

TB,STATE,mat,,num_state_vars ! mat – material number ! num_state_vars – number of state variables

The number of state variables depends on the material model and is defined the following sections.

4.2.5.2 Law=9, mlaw=1 – exponential softening By setting parameter mlaw=1, the softening behavior of concrete in tension is described an exponential function. The shape of the exponential function is controlled by the mode I area specific fracture energy. The softening model is regularized with respect to the element size. In compression the pre-peak harden-ing behavior is described by a power hardening law.

4.2.5.3 Law=9, mlaw=5 – steel-fiber concrete In law=9, mlaw=5 the stress-strain relationship in compression is similar to law 9, mlaw=0. It is described by a combination of nonlinear hardening function and linear softening function. According to DIN EN 1992-1-2 the ultimate plastic strain in compression is set to 0.02. In tension the influence of steel fibres is taken into account. The post-peak behavior in tension is described by a multi-linear softening function. Fig. 4-3 shows the hardening/softening functions and the corresponding material parameters. Further-more, the dilatancy factor is not constant in tension.

4.2.5.5 Law=9, mlaw=10 – linear softening Law=9, mlaw=10 is quite similar to law=9, mlaw=0. It describes the stress-strain relationship in compres-sion by a combination of nonlinear hardening function and linear softening function. In contrast to law=9, mlaw=0 the ultimate plastic strain in compression is not a constant and must be defined by the user as additional input. In tension the post-peak behavior is described by a linear softening function. Fig. 4-6 shows the hardening/softening functions and the corresponding material parameters.

Fig. 4-6: hardening and softening functions of law 9 mlaw 10 (left - compression, right - tension)

Additionally, this material law supports temperature dependent strength and softening parameters. The dependency of individual parameters on the temperature according to DIN EN 1992-1-2 is illustrated in Fig. 3-14, Fig. 3-15 and Fig. 3-16. In contrast to law=9, mlaw=0 the temperature dependency of the ulti-mate plastic strain in compression is not based on DIN EN 1992-1-2, but a multi-linear function describes the temperature dependency of the ultimate plastic strain Up to four temperature points and the corres-ponding ultimate plastic strains can be defined for this function.

4.2.8.3 Law=14, mlaw=6 – fracture energy based soft ening By setting parameter mlaw=6, fracture energy (mode-I) based softening functions are applied in tension and in compression. In order to regularize the model (remove mesh dependency), both fracture energy values are scaled by an equivalent element size. Additionally, a power hardening law is used to describe the nonlinear pre-peak behavior in compression. Fig. 4-10 shows the hardening/softening functions and the corresponding material parameters.

4.3.1 Choice of the numerical control variables eps: 10-6, shall not be chosen to small (10-4 at KN and m); maxit: 10 local iteration steps shall be enough (at least as many as active yield surfaces); but not to be chosen too small geps: 10-20 for double precision; cutmax 4

4.3.2 Remarks for choosing the material parameters No material parameter should be ever set to 0.0. Even for residual strengths values above eps*100 should be chosen. Dilatancy angles close to zero imply ideally smooth friction surfaces in a physical sense and can lead to extreme convergence difficulties. This results from tension component which can not be removed in case of shear failure. The dilatancy angle therefore should always be set at least to 1°. The tension strength is limited to the intersection point of the Mohr-Coulomb-line (-plane) and the normal friction axis (C /tan(phi)).

4.3.3 Remarks and tips for using multiPlas in nonlinear s tructural analysis

If an oscillation can be seen for a certain imbalance value, the convergence for the load step can be achieved by increasing the convergence criteria in ANSYS slightly above the oscillation value. In the fol-lowing load case the convergence criteria can be set to the smaller value again. In case of frequent error messages (**local return mapping failed**) the local number of iterations should be increased and the yield areas should be checked. This output only occurs if wr ≥ 1. In case where problems occur from processing the polyhedral yield figure (in case of unfortunate physi-cally problematic choice of parameters) the calculations should be performed by using isotropic yield cri-teria with the whole load at first. Then a following calculation with activation of anisotropic yield criteria (this is especially the case for primary stress conditions) can be done. Do never chose dilatancy or friction angle as 0.0 because this can lead to unbalanced forces which can not be relocated! A cohesion c = 0 (e.g. sand) implies that the material does not have any uniaxial compressive or tensile strength. First, the material therefore has to be iterated into a stable position. This leads very often to convergence difficulties, so it is advised to use an adequately small value instead of zero for the cohesion while using the MOHR-COULOMB (LAW = 1) yield conditions. The automatic time stepping is called directly from the routine (it can be switched on via: autots,on). The global load step bisection can be disabled by choosing a large value for cutmax. In the case of a lo-cal bisection, no hints are written out.

USER’S MANUAL - multiPlas 5.0.679, May, 2013

Be careful not to use too large values for maxinc and simultaneous suppression of the global bisection. This may lead to a large computational effort in a Newton-Raphson-Equilibrium iteration! In this case, re-quest the cause by use the global bisection! Multi surface plasticity fundamentally is a physical path dependent phenomenon. Therefore a global in-crementation in order to represent the relocation of force correctly is of utmost importance. In the multi surface routines, softening (residual strength) is only introduced in at the equilibrium states (so only after reaching the global Newton-Raphson equilibrium). Therefore, a global incrementing is im-portant in the case of softening. The value dtmin in the tb-data-fiel has to be identical to the value of dtmin that is used by ANSYS in the solution-phase (deltim,dtanfang,dtmin,dtmax,...). If no convergent solution could be found: -decrease incrementation (dtmin,...) -increase the global convergence criteria (cnvtol,f,...) Newton-Raphson, full (usage of consistent elasto-plastic tangent) or Newton-Raphson, init (starting stiff-ness) is supported. For the practical problems Newton-Raphson, init is recommended. Especially when considering geometric nonlinearities or when working with EKILL / EALIVE the full Newton-Raphson me-thod is necessary.

Plastic activity value The plastic activity shows which yield surfaces are active in the current equilibrium state. A yield surface is marked active if this yield surface has a positive plastic multiplier. Consequently the yield surface was violated during the return-mapping procedure and the stress state at the end of the return-mapping process is on this yield surface. This allows the identification of failure mechanism type and of the cause of load shifting. The plastic activity is path depended. A yield surface can be activated and deactivated more than once during a load case. The plastic activity value is stored in the first state variable of nonlinear multiPlas material models. The meaning of the activity value depends on the individual material models. The encoding of the activity val-ue is shown in the subsections of section 4.2. In order to plot the activity value the state variables must be stored in the result file. Please execute the following command before solving the global system of equations:

OUTRES,SVAR,<Freq> (<Freq> can be replaced by an integer, LAST or ALL. Please refer to the ANSYS APDL manual for a comprehensive description of the OUTRES command)

In the post-processing (/post7) the activities can be plotted with one of the following commands: PLESOL,SVAR,1 PLNSOL,SVAR,1

5.3 Examples 5 to 8 - Kienberger Experiment G6 [6-1 3]

**Calculation:

- material and geometric nonlinear - Convergence bound at 1% to 2% of the L2-norm of the residual forces. In ANSYS, the convergence criterion is defined as default value of 0.1 % of the L2-norm of the residual forces. That means that all residual forces have to be transferred to the load vector ex-cept 0.1 % of the Root Mean Square. In the following calculations, a convergence criterion be-tween 1% and 2% has been used. According to experience, convergence criteria between 1% and 2% are precisely enough, to verify equilibrium conditions. (Cohesion = 0 means no tensile- resp. compressive strength of the material. Hence result con-vergence problems, so that the convergence bound has to be increased compared with the de-fault value to achieve a solution.)
