Programme - TC1 - February 2-6, 2015
TC1 - Topics in constitutive modelling of frictional materials: theory and automation of numerical implementation of plasticity at small and large strains (36hrs)(Prof. Jože Korelc, Prof. Stanisław Stupkiewicz)
The course will consist of two interlinked parts: constitutive modelling in mechanics of materials and automation of numerical implementation of the constitutive models. The main focus of the first part will be elastoplasticity at small and finite strains. The fundamental concepts of continuum mechanics will be introduced as a basis for a systematic presentation of several constitutive models. The topics covered will include elasticity, elastoplasticity with isotropic and kinematic hardening and coupled thermoplasticity, as well as selected specialized models such as crystal plasticity. In addition to the usual formulation of each model, it will be shown how to formulate the model in a way that the advanced automation tools discussed in the second part of the course can be efficiently used for its numerical implementation. Considering numerical implementation, a general structure of incremental constitutive equations and return mapping algorithm will be introduced.
The second part of the course will first address the broad area of advanced software technologies for scientific computing. It will be demonstrated that an efficient automation of a general formulation of plasticity models can be achieved using the automatic differentiation technique combined with the symbolic problem description, automatic code generation and code optimization. The main objective of the course is to provide theoretical background as well as practical practical training for automatic generation of nonlinear finite element codes using Mathematica based code generation system AceGen (www.fgg.uni-lj.si/symech/). Participants will get insight into the mathematical formulation of a problem, its symbolic description with symbolic code generator AceGen, methods for verification of the model and the generated code and a final implementation in the finite element environment AceFEM and ABAQUS. The advantages of using automatic differentiation technique and symbolic description of plasticity models will be demonstrated on several examples including: hyperelasticity, finite-strain plasticity, coupled thermo-mechanical problems and multi-scale analysis. The lectures will be given in computer laboratory. Students will be encouraged to try to use symbolic approach on their specific field of research. All the participant will get students AceGen/AceFEM license and lecture notes.
Classroom - equipped with blackboard and computer projector.
Computer laboratory - The lectures will be given in a computer laboratory. All the participants will get students AceGen/AceFEM licence. Students that will use their own notebook must have symbolic system Mathematica version 9.0 or 10.0 preinstalled.
The division of the topics into individual time slots is provisional.
