59.42.1 DruckerPrager(...)

This method creates a DruckerPrager object.

Path

materialApi.materials()[name].DruckerPrager

Prototype

odb_DruckerPrager&
DruckerPrager(const odb_SequenceSequenceDouble& table,
              const odb_String& shearCriterion,
              double eccentricity,
              bool testData,
              bool temperatureDependency,
              int dependencies);

Required argument

table

An odb_SequenceSequenceDouble specifying the items described below.

Optional arguments

shearCriterion

An odb_String specifying the yield criterion. Possible values are "LINEAR", "HYPERBOLIC", and "EXPONENTIAL". The default value is "LINEAR".
This argument applies only to Abaqus/Standard analyses. Only the linear Drucker-Prager model is available in Abaqus/Explicit analyses.

eccentricity

A Double specifying the flow potential eccentricity, , a small positive number that defines the rate at which the hyperbolic flow potential approaches its asymptote. The default value is 0.1.
This argument applies only to Abaqus/Standard analyses.

testData

A Boolean specifying whether the material constants for the exponent model are to be computed by Abaqus/Standard from triaxial test data at different levels of confining pressure. The default value is false.
This argument is valid only if shearCriterion="EXPONENTIAL".

temperatureDependency

A Boolean specifying whether the data depend on temperature. The default value is false.

dependencies

An Int specifying the number of field variable dependencies. The default value is 0.

Table data

If shearCriterion=LINEAR (the only option allowed in an Abaqus/Explicit analysis), the table data specify the following:

Material angle of friction, , in the – plane. Give the value in degrees.
, the ratio of the flow stress in triaxial tension to the flow stress in triaxial compression. . If the default value of 0.0 is accepted, a value of 1.0 is assumed.
Dilation angle, , in the – plane. Give the value in degrees.
Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.
Value of the first field variable, if the data depend on field variables.
Value of the second field variable.
Etc.

If shearCriterion=HYPERBOLIC, the table data specify the following:

Material angle of friction, , at high confining pressure in the – plane. Give the value in degrees.
Initial hydrostatic tension strength, .
Dilation angle, , at high confining pressure in the – plane. Give the value in degrees.
Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.
Value of the first field variable, if the data depend on field variables.
Value of the second field variable.
Etc.

If shearCriterion=EXPONENTIAL, the table data specify the following:

Dilation angle, , at high confining pressure in the – plane. Give the value in degrees.
Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.
Value of the first field variable, if the data depend on field variables.
Value of the second field variable.
Etc.

Return value

A DruckerPrager object.

Exceptions

RangeError.
