[Question #690521]: Exponential softening shear force after peak-implimentation

 

New question #690521 on Yade:

Dear all,

I'm trying to obtain an exponential softening shear behavior (damage-plasticity) after peak stress instead of Mohr-coulomb failure with cohesion which is currently implemented CPM model in Yade.
shear stress will be calculated as follows,

sigma_S= k_s*(1-D)*(Us-Us_Pl) where D is scalar damage variable and sigma_S,Us, Us_Pl are vectors

D=exp(-|Us_pl|/constant);  where , |*|  : maginitude

and yield criteria is

F=|sigma_S|- Cohesion*(1-D)  ,  cohesion is scalar value say ,1e6 like that


from yield function F, I can calculate the scalar value of plastic shear displacement, but the problem is how to update the plastic shear displacement vector?

Could you please help me to solve this issue?
