Calculate total force from cauchy stress
by Patricia Garcia Cañadilla
Dear Robert,
I have a 2D body of hyperelastic material which contracts and I would like
to compute the total force developed by the body from the cauchy stress. I
am trying to follow some of your indications I found in this group, but I
still couldn't make it works. Could you please help me to fix the problem?
I am getting the following error:
key = (region.name, integral.order, integration)
AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'name'
I am trying to do the following, inside stress_strain post-processing
function:
def stress_strain(out, problem, state, extend = False ):
from sfepy.base.base import Struct
from sfepy.mechanics.tensors import StressTransform
from sfepy.mechanics.tensors import transform_data
from sfepy.discrete.common.mappings import get_normals
ev = problem.evaluate
field = problem.fields['displacement']
region = problem.domain.regions['Gamma']
integral = problem.integrals['i2']
n = get_normals(field,integral,regions)
stress = ev('dw_tl_fib_a.1.Omega(f1.fmax, f1.eps_opt, f1.s, f1.fdir,
f1.act, v, u )',mode='qp', term_mode= 'stress');
F = ev('ev_def_grad.1.Omega(u)',mode='el_avg');
transform = StressTransform(F)
Cstress = transform.get_cauchy_from_2pk(stress)
T = Cstress*n;
Force = ev('ev_surface_integrate.2.Gamma(T)')
And here it is part of the problem configuration file.
fields = {
'displacement': ('real', 'vector', 'Omega', 1),
}
materials = {
'solid' : (None, 'get_elastic_pars'),
'load' : (None, 'linear_tension'),
'f1' : 'get_pars_fibres1',
}
variables = {
'u': ('unknown field', 'displacement', 0),
'v': ('test field', 'displacement', 'u'),
}
regions = {
'Omega' : 'all',
'Fix1' : ('vertices in x < %.10f' % (fix_point + eps2), 'facet'),
'Fix2' : ('vertices in x > %.10f' % (fix_point - eps2), 'facet'),
'Fix' : ('r.Fix1 *v r.Fix2', 'facet'),
'Gamma' : ('vertices of surface','edge'),
}
ebcs = {
'fixb' : ('Fix', {'u.all' : 0.0}),
}
integrals = {
'i1' : ('v', 1),
'i2' : ('s', 2),
}

Re: Torque
by Robert Cimrman
In examples/large_deformation/hyperelastic.py a rotation by displacements is applied. By using a similar function the vectors defining the force couples could be defined for dw_surface_ltr (IMHO). Does it make sense?

Do I generate mesh in the wrong way?
by Ronghai Wu
Hi Robert,
I am using sfepy for static linear elasticity problem in 2D. The mesh size
is 200*200 (mesh file is attached) and equations are as following:
def D_function(self, ts, coors, mode, term=None, **kwargs):
if mode != 'qp': return
_, weights = term.integral.get_qp('2_4')
self.n_qp = weights.shape[0]
self.val_D = np.repeat(self.stiffness_tensor, self.n_qp, axis=0)
return {'function' : self.val_D}
def prestress_function(self,ts, coors, mode, term=None, **kwargs):
if mode != 'qp': return
_, weights = term.integral.get_qp('2_4')
self.n_qp = weights.shape[0]
self.val_pre = np.repeat(self.prestress_value, self.n_qp, axis=0)
return {'function' : self.val_pre}
self.m = Material('m', function=self.D_function)
self.prestress_value = np.copy(self.stress_0)
(self.prestress_value).shape = (-1, 3, 1)
self.prestress = Material('prestress', function=self.prestress_function)
integral = Integral('i', order=2)
self.t1 = Term.new('dw_lin_elastic(m.function, v, u )', integral, self.omega, m=self.m, v=self.v, u=self.u)
self.t2 = Term.new('dw_lin_prestress(prestress.function, v )',integral, self.omega, prestress=self.prestress, v=self.v)
self.t3 = Term.new('dw_surface_ltr(traction_lef.val, v)', integral, self.lef, traction_lef=self.traction_lef, v=self.v)
self.t4 = Term.new('dw_surface_ltr(traction_rig.val, v)', integral, self.rig, traction_rig=self.traction_rig, v=self.v)
self.t5 = Term.new('dw_surface_ltr(traction_top.val, v)', integral, self.top, traction_top=self.traction_top, v=self.v)
self.t6 = Term.new('dw_surface_ltr(traction_bot.val, v)', integral, self.bot, traction_bot=self.traction_bot, v=self.v)
self.fem_eq = Equation('balance', self.t1 - self.t2 - self.t3 - self.t4 - self.t5 - self.t6)
self.eqs = Equations([self.fem_eq])
self.ls = ScipyDirect({})
self.nls_status = IndexedStruct()
self.nls = Newton({'i_max' : 1,'eps_a' : 1e-8,'problem' : 'nonlinear'}, lin_solver=self.ls, status=self.nls_status)
self.pb = Problem('elasticity', equations=self.eqs, nls=self.nls, ls=self.ls)
self.pb.time_update(ebcs=Conditions([fix_u_lef_corn]))
self.pb.update_materials()
self.vec = self.pb.solve()
When I run the simulation, the information below are printed. I have
several questions about it. I tried to find answers from source codes but
failed. Could you please give me some help, thanks.
(1) I do understand why "matrix shape: (79999, 79999)" and "matrix
structural nonzeros: 1439965". what exactly this "matrix" is? what is its
relation with mesh size (200*200)?
(2) I do not understand why "updating materials..." did twice.
(3) "solve: 6.18 [s]". I guess it should not take such a long time for a
mesh size (200*200) problem. Is it because I generate mesh file in the
wrong way or because of other reasons?
(4) In which source code file the following information are printed?
sfepy: updating variables...

The above error message is displayed after the region definition process.
Can you tell me what is causing this issue?

I tried the same using an older version of sfepy, which gave a different

About Mesh
by Nikhil Vaidya
Hello!
I am trying to solve a problem using sfepy. It is a multiphysics problem
with weakly coupled convection and conduction. There are three regions in
my domain which need to be separately defined. I went through the user
guide and saw the format for defining regions in the domain. The regions in
my geometry are not simple enough to be described by mathematical
conditions. I usually use Starccm+ for my multiphysics simulations. There I
define the regions using the GUI. One region in my domain is a real blood
vessel observed in a CT scan. Can anyone tell me how I should define my
regions in this case?
I have seen in the user guide, that regions can be defined using "groups"
of cells and vertices. I would like to know how these groups are defined.
Best regards,
Nikhil

Hi,
I try to launch several times sfepy using a loop but at the second
