Re: [Question #665857]: Uniaxial compresion

    Status: Answered => Open

Seti is still having a problem:
Hi Robert and Jan,

Thanks so much  for your replies  :)

>Could you be more specific than "it won't run"? Maybe you could provide
details as to what happens? Is there an error? Does Yade crash? I ran
your script with 1e5 and 3.5e6. It runs.

 my model will be exploded.

>3) I would say it is a matter of postprocessing and the definition of
crack. You can save interactions and display e.g. only those, whose
damage is > 0.99

Your advise, does make sense to me, however not sure how should I do it?
is there any existing example that you can share in this regards? I just
used paraview for postprocessing - the recorded images  for preliminary
exercisers.

>This is the second time in a couple months that someone has run into
this ZeroDivisionError because they are using doModes=2. I am going to
edit the script on trunk so we don't keep running into this.

I need to use the compression mode

I used again the original script and just changed it to compression as
per below - it does not work, simulation stops in couple of secs

Would you please let me know your thoughts?

Thanks,
Seti

"""
A fairly complex script performing uniaxial tension-compression test on hyperboloid-shaped specimen.
Most parameters of the model (and of the setup) can be read from table using yade-multi.
After the simulation setup, tension loading is run and stresses are periodically saved for plotting
as well as checked for getting below the maximum value so far. This indicates failure (see stopIfDamaged
function). After failure in tension, the original setup is loaded anew and the sense of loading reversed.
After failure in compression, strain-stress curves are saved via plot.saveGnuplot and we exit,
giving some useful information like peak stresses in tension/compression.
Running this script for the first time can take long time, as the specimen is prepared using triaxial
compression. Next time, however, an attempt is made to load previously-generated packing 
(from /tmp/triaxPackCache.sqlite) and this expensive procedure is avoided.
The specimen length can be specified, its diameter is half of the length and skirt of the hyperboloid is 
4/5 of the width.
The particle size is constant and can be specified using the sphereRadius parameter.
The 3d display has displacement scaling applied, so that the fracture looks more spectacular. The scale
is 1000 for tension and 100 for compression.
