Adds a matrix term given by the assembly string <literal>expr</literal> which will be assembled in region <literal>region</literal> and with the integration method <literal>mim</literal>. Only the matrix term will be taken into account, assuming that it is linear. The advantage of declaring a term linear instead of nonlinear is that it will be assembled only once and no assembly is necessary for the residual. Take care that if the expression contains some variables and if the expression is a potential or of first order (i.e. describe the weak form, not the derivative of the weak form), the expression will be derivated with respect to all variables. You can specify if the term is symmetric, coercive or not. If you are not sure, the better is to declare the term not symmetric and not coercive. But some solvers (conjugate gradient for instance) are not allowed for non-coercive problems. <literal>brickname</literal> is an optional name for the brick.

ind = gf_model_set(model M, 'add linear twodomain term', mesh_im mim, string expression, int region, string secondary_domain[, int is_symmetric[, int is_coercive]])

ind = gf_model_set(model M, 'add linear generic assembly brick', mesh_im mim, string expression[, int region[, int is_symmetric[, int is_coercive]]])

Deprecated. Use gf_model_set(model M, ‘add linear term’) instead.

Adds a nonlinear term given by the assembly string <literal>expr</literal> which will be assembled in region <literal>region</literal> and with the integration method <literal>mim</literal>. The expression can describe a potential or a weak form. Second order terms (i.e. containing second order test functions, Test2) are not allowed. You can specify if the term is symmetric, coercive or not. If you are not sure, the better is to declare the term not symmetric and not coercive. But some solvers (conjugate gradient for instance) are not allowed for non-coercive problems. <literal>brickname</literal> is an optional name for the brick.

Adds a source term given by the assembly string <literal>expr</literal> which will be assembled in region <literal>region</literal> and with the integration method <literal>mim</literal>. Only the residual term will be taken into account. Take care that if the expression contains some variables and if the expression is a potential, the expression will be derivated with respect to all variables. <literal>brickname</literal> is an optional name for the brick.

ind = gf_model_set(model M, 'add twodomain source term', mesh_im mim, string expression, int region, string secondary_domain)

Adds a source term given by a weak form language expression like gf_model_set(model M, ‘add source term’) but for an integration on a direct product of two domains, a first specfied by <literal></literal>mim<literal></literal> and <literal></literal>region<literal></literal> and a second one by <literal></literal>secondary_domain<literal></literal> which has to be declared first into the model.

ind = gf_model_set(model M, 'add source term generic assembly brick', mesh_im mim, string expression[, int region])

Adds expression <literal>expr</literal> to be evaluated at assembly time and being assigned to the data <literal>dataname</literal> which has to be of im_data type. This allows for instance to store a sub-expression of an assembly computation to be used on an other assembly. It can be used for instance to store the plastic strain in plasticity models. <literal>order</literal> represents the order of assembly where this assignement has to be done (potential(0), weak form(1) or tangent system(2) or at each order(-1)). The default value is 1. If before = 1, the the assignement is perfromed before the computation of the other assembly terms, such that the data can be used in the remaining of the assembly as an intermediary result (be careful that it is still considered as a data, no derivation of the expression is performed for the tangent system). If before = 0 (default), the assignement is done after the assembly terms.

gf_model_set(model M, 'clear assembly assignment')

Delete all added assembly assignments

If the data is a scalar or a matrix and the variable is vector valued then the term is added componentwise. An order four tensor data is allowed for vector valued variable only. The data can be constant or describbed on a fem. Of course, when the data is a tensor describe on a finite element method (a tensor field) the data can be a huge vector. The components of the matrix/tensor have to be stored with the fortran order (columnwise) in the data vector (compatibility with blas). The symmetry of the given matrix/tensor is not verified (but assumed).

The symmetry of the linear system is kept if all other bricks are symmetric. This brick is to be reserved for simple Dirichlet conditions (only dof declared on the corresponding boundary are prescribed). The application of this brick on reduced dof may be problematic. Intrinsic vectorial finite element method are not supported. <literal>dataname</literal> is the optional right hand side of the Dirichlet condition.

If it is not specified, it is added on the whole mesh. On two-dimensional meshes, the term will correpsond to a plain strain approximation.

Add a nonlinear elasticity term to the model relatively to the variable <literal>varname</literal> (deprecated brick, use add_finite_strain_elaticity instead). <literal>lawname</literal> is the constitutive law which could be ‘SaintVenant Kirchhoff’, ‘Mooney Rivlin’, ‘neo Hookean’, ‘Ciarlet Geymonat’ or ‘generalized Blatz Ko’. ‘Mooney Rivlin’ and ‘neo Hookean’ law names can be preceded with the word ‘compressible’ or ‘incompressible’ to force using the corresponding version. The compressible version of these laws requires one additional material coefficient. By default, the incompressible version of ‘Mooney Rivlin’ law and the compressible one of the ‘neo Hookean’ law are considered. In general, ‘neo Hookean’ is a special case of the ‘Mooney Rivlin’ law that requires one coefficient less. IMPORTANT : if the variable is defined on a 2D mesh, the plane strain approximation is automatically used. <literal>dataname</literal> is a vector of parameters for the constitutive law.

Add a nonlinear elasticity term to the model relatively to the variable <literal>varname</literal>. <literal>lawname</literal> is the constitutive law which could be ‘SaintVenant Kirchhoff’, ‘Mooney Rivlin’, ‘Neo Hookean’, ‘Ciarlet Geymonat’ or ‘Generalized Blatz Ko’. ‘Mooney Rivlin’ and ‘Neo Hookean’ law names have to be preceeded with the word ‘Compressible’ or ‘Incompressible’ to force using the corresponding version. The compressible version of these laws requires one additional material coefficient.

IMPORTANT : if the variable is defined on a 2D mesh, the plane strain approximation is automatically used. <literal>params</literal> is a vector of parameters for the constitutive law. Its length depends on the law. It could be a short vector of constant values or a vector field described on a finite element method for variable coefficients. <literal>region</literal> is an optional mesh region on which the term is added.

ind = gf_model_set(model M, 'add small strain elastoplasticity brick', mesh_im mim,  string lawname, string unknowns_type [, string varnames, ...] [, string params, ...] [, string theta = '1' [, string dt = 'timestep']] [, int region = -1])

Adds a small strain plasticity term to the model <literal>M</literal>. This is the main GetFEM brick for small strain plasticity. <literal>lawname</literal> is the name of an implemented plastic law, <literal>unknowns_type</literal> indicates the choice between a discretization where the plastic multiplier is an unknown of the problem or (return mapping approach) just a data of the model stored for the next iteration. Remember that in both cases, a multiplier is stored anyway. <literal>varnames</literal> is a set of variable and data names with length which may depend on the plastic law (at least the displacement, the plastic multiplier and the plastic strain). <literal>params</literal> is a list of expressions for the parameters (at least elastic coefficients and the yield stress). These expressions can be some data names (or even variable names) of the model but can also be any scalar valid expression of the high level assembly language (such as ‘1/2’, ‘2+sin(X[0])’, ‘1+Norm(v)’ …). The last two parameters optionally provided in <literal>params</literal> are the <literal>theta</literal> parameter of the <literal>theta</literal>-scheme (generalized trapezoidal rule) used for the plastic strain integration and the time-step<literal>dt</literal>. The default value for <literal>theta</literal> if omitted is 1, which corresponds to the classical Backward Euler scheme which is first order consistent. <literal>theta=1/2</literal> corresponds to the Crank-Nicolson scheme (trapezoidal rule) which is second order consistent. Any value between 1/2 and 1 should be a valid value. The default value of <literal>dt</literal> is ‘timestep’ which simply indicates the time step defined in the model (by md.set_time_step(dt)). Alternatively it can be any expression (data name, constant value …). The time step can be altered from one iteration to the next one. <literal>region</literal> is a mesh region.

The available plasticity laws are:

  • ‘Prandtl Reuss’ (or ‘isotropic perfect plasticity’). Isotropic elasto-plasticity with no hardening. The variables are the displacement, the plastic multiplier and the plastic strain. The displacement should be a variable and have a corresponding data having the same name preceded by ‘Previous_’ corresponding to the displacement at the previous time step (typically ‘u’ and ‘Previous_u’). The plastic multiplier should also have two versions (typically ‘xi’ and ‘Previous_xi’) the first one being defined as data if <literal>unknowns_type </literal> is ‘DISPLACEMENT_ONLY’ or the integer value 0, or as a variable if <literal>unknowns_type</literal> is DISPLACEMENT_AND_PLASTIC_MULTIPLIER or the integer value 1. The plastic strain should represent a n x n data tensor field stored on mesh_fem or (preferably) on an im_data (corresponding to <literal>mim</literal>). The data are the first Lame coefficient, the second one (shear modulus) and the uniaxial yield stress. A typical call is gf_model_get(model M, ‘add small strain elastoplasticity brick’, mim, ‘Prandtl Reuss’, 0, ‘u’, ‘xi’, ‘Previous_Ep’, ‘lambda’, ‘mu’, ‘sigma_y’, ‘1’, ‘timestep’); IMPORTANT: Note that this law implements the 3D expressions. If it is used in 2D, the expressions are just transposed to the 2D. For the plane strain approximation, see below.
  • “plane strain Prandtl Reuss” (or “plane strain isotropic perfect plasticity”) The same law as the previous one but adapted to the plane strain approximation. Can only be used in 2D.
  • “Prandtl Reuss linear hardening” (or “isotropic plasticity linear hardening”). Isotropic elasto-plasticity with linear isotropic and kinematic hardening. An additional variable compared to “Prandtl Reuss” law: the accumulated plastic strain. Similarly to the plastic strain, it is only stored at the end of the time step, so a simple data is required (preferably on an im_data). Two additional parameters: the kinematic hardening modulus and the isotropic one. 3D expressions only. A typical call is gf_model_get(model M, ‘add small strain elastoplasticity brick’, mim, ‘Prandtl Reuss linear hardening’, 0, ‘u’, ‘xi’, ‘Previous_Ep’, ‘Previous_alpha’, ‘lambda’, ‘mu’, ‘sigma_y’, ‘H_k’, H_i’, ‘1’, ‘timestep’);
  • “plane strain Prandtl Reuss linear hardening” (or “plane strain isotropic plasticity linear hardening”). The same law as the previous one but adapted to the plane strain approximation. Can only be used in 2D.

See GetFEM user documentation for further explanations on the discretization of the plastic flow and on the implemented plastic laws. See also GetFEM user documentation on time integration strategy (integration of transient problems).

IMPORTANT : remember that <literal>small_strain_elastoplasticity_next_iter</literal> has to be called at the end of each time step, before the next one (and before any post-treatment : this sets the value of the plastic strain and plastic multiplier).

ind = gf_model_set(model M, 'add nodal contact with rigid obstacle brick',  mesh_im mim, string varname_u, string multname_n[, string multname_t], string dataname_r[, string dataname_friction_coeff], int region, string obstacle[,  int augmented_version])

Add a contact with or without friction condition with a rigid obstacle to the model. The condition is applied on the variable <literal>varname_u</literal> on the boundary corresponding to <literal>region</literal>. The rigid obstacle should be described with the string <literal>obstacle</literal> being a signed distance to the obstacle. This string should be an expression where the coordinates are ‘x’, ‘y’ in 2D and ‘x’, ‘y’, ‘z’ in 3D. For instance, if the rigid obstacle correspond to <latex style=”text”><![CDATA[z le 0]]></latex>, the corresponding signed distance will be simply “z”. <literal>multname_n</literal> should be a fixed size variable whose size is the number of degrees of freedom on boundary <literal>region</literal>. It represents the contact equivalent nodal forces. In order to add a friction condition one has to add the <literal>multname_t</literal> and <literal>dataname_friction_coeff</literal> parameters. <literal>multname_t</literal> should be a fixed size variable whose size is the number of degrees of freedom on boundary <literal>region</literal> multiplied by <latex style=”text”><![CDATA[d-1]]></latex> where <latex style=”text”><![CDATA[d]]></latex> is the domain dimension. It represents the friction equivalent nodal forces. The augmentation parameter <literal>r</literal> should be chosen in a range of acceptabe values (close to the Young modulus of the elastic body, see Getfem user documentation). <literal>dataname_friction_coeff</literal> is the friction coefficient. It could be a scalar or a vector of values representing the friction coefficient on each contact node. The parameter <literal>augmented_version</literal> indicates the augmentation strategy : 1 for the non-symmetric Alart-Curnier augmented Lagrangian, 2 for the symmetric one (except for the coupling between contact and Coulomb friction), 3 for the new unsymmetric method. Basically, this brick compute the matrix BN and the vectors gap and alpha and calls the basic contact brick.

Add a contact with or without friction condition with a rigid obstacle to the model. This brick adds a contact which is defined in an integral way. It is the direct approximation of an augmented Lagrangian formulation (see Getfem user documentation) defined at the continuous level. The advantage is a better scalability: the number of Newton iterations should be more or less independent of the mesh size. The contact condition is applied on the variable <literal>varname_u</literal> on the boundary corresponding to <literal>region</literal>. The rigid obstacle should be described with the data <literal>dataname_obstacle</literal> being a signed distance to the obstacle (interpolated on a finite element method). <literal>multname</literal> should be a fem variable representing the contact stress. An inf-sup condition beetween <literal>multname</literal> and <literal>varname_u</literal> is required. The augmentation parameter <literal>dataname_r</literal> should be chosen in a range of acceptabe values. The optional parameter <literal>dataname_friction_coeff</literal> is the friction coefficient which could be constant or defined on a finite element method. Possible values for <literal>option</literal> is 1 for the non-symmetric Alart-Curnier augmented Lagrangian method, 2 for the symmetric one, 3 for the non-symmetric Alart-Curnier method with an additional augmentation and 4 for a new unsymmetric method. The default value is 1. In case of contact with friction, <literal>dataname_alpha</literal> and <literal>dataname_wt</literal> are optional parameters to solve evolutionary friction problems. <literal>dataname_gamma</literal> and <literal>dataname_vt</literal> represent optional data for adding a parameter-dependent sliding velocity to the friction condition.

Add a penalized contact with or without friction condition with a rigid obstacle to the model. The condition is applied on the variable <literal>varname_u</literal> on the boundary corresponding to <literal>region</literal>. The rigid obstacle should be described with the data <literal>dataname_obstacle</literal> being a signed distance to the obstacle (interpolated on a finite element method). The penalization parameter <literal>dataname_r</literal> should be chosen large enough to prescribe approximate non-penetration and friction conditions but not too large not to deteriorate too much the conditionning of the tangent system. <literal>dataname_lambda</literal> is an optional parameter used if option is 2. In that case, the penalization term is shifted by lambda (this allows the use of an Uzawa algorithm on the corresponding augmented Lagrangian formulation)

The contact condition is prescribed with Nitsche’s method.

The optional parameter <literal>dataname_friction_coeff</literal> is the friction coefficient which could be constant or defined on a finite element method. CAUTION: This brick has to be added in the model after all the bricks corresponding to partial differential terms having a Neumann term. Moreover, This brick can only be applied to bricks declaring their Neumann terms. Returns the brick index in the model.

Add a contact with or without friction condition between two faces of one or two elastic bodies. The condition is applied on the variable <literal>varname_u1</literal> or the variables <literal>varname_u1</literal> and <literal>varname_u2</literal> depending if a single or two distinct displacement fields are given. Integers <literal>rg1</literal> and <literal>rg2</literal> represent the regions expected to come in contact with each other. In the single displacement variable case the regions defined in both <literal>rg1</literal> and <literal>rg2</literal> refer to the variable <literal>varname_u1</literal>. In the case of two displacement variables, <literal>rg1</literal> refers to <literal>varname_u1</literal> and <literal>rg2</literal> refers to <literal>varname_u2</literal>. <literal>multname_n</literal> should be a fixed size variable whose size is the number of degrees of freedom on those regions among the ones defined in <literal>rg1</literal> and <literal>rg2</literal> which are characterized as “slaves”. It represents the contact equivalent nodal normal forces. <literal>multname_t</literal> should be a fixed size variable whose size corresponds to the size of <literal>multname_n</literal> multiplied by qdim - 1 . It represents the contact equivalent nodal tangent (frictional) forces.

The friction coefficient stored in the parameter <literal>fr</literal> is either a single value or a vector of the same size as <literal>multname_n</literal>. The optional parameters <literal>slave1</literal> and <literal>slave2</literal> declare if the regions defined in <literal>rg1</literal> and <literal>rg2</literal> are correspondingly considered as “slaves”. By default <literal>slave1</literal> is true and <literal>slave2</literal> is false, i.e. <literal>rg1</literal> contains the slave surfaces, while ‘rg2’ the master surfaces. Preferrably only one of <literal>slave1</literal> and <literal>slave2</literal> is set to true.
