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? r. ----- Reply message ----- From: "Andre Smit" <freev...(a)gmail.com> To: <sfepy...(a)googlegroups.com> Subject: Torque Date: Sat, Dec 18, 2010 05:10 What is the best way to apply a torque load to a model? -- Andre -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sfepy-devel" group.

visualization

by vasantha wijeyakulasuriya

Hi Prof. Cimrman I just installed in Anaconda3 using conda forge, SfePy 2017.3 under windows 10. From the command line:python ./postproc.py cylider.vtk gave the following errors: (C:\Users\vwij\Anaconda3.4.3) C:\Users\vwij\Anaconda3.4.3\Lib\site-packages\sfepy\script>python ./postproc.py cylinder.vtk Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\vwij\Anaconda3.4.3\lib\site-packages\sfepy\postprocess\viewer.py", line 10, in <module> from enthought.traits.api \ ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'enthought' During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "./postproc.py", line 53, in <module> from sfepy.postprocess.viewer import (Viewer, get_data_ranges, File "C:\Users\vwij\Anaconda3.4.3\lib\site-packages\sfepy\postprocess\viewer.py", line 21, in <module> from traits.api \ ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'traits' I am a novice to this. Your guidance will be much appreciated. vas

Result visualization with the buildin sfepy viewer

by Kathrin Sobe

Hi Robert, the linear elastic simulation with my large dataset is working, basically. It was possible to run the simulation in the same way as with my test example mesh some weeks ago. But I get an exception trying to use the build in sfepy Viewer: .... .../VTK-6.3.0/VTK-6.3.0/Common/ExecutionModel/vtkAlgorithm.cxx, line 1421 vtkGlyph3D (0x4cd1fc0): Attempt to get connection index 0 for input port 0, which has 0 connections. .... ICE default IO error handler doing an exit(), pid = 31572, errno = 32 The output .vtk file looks good. Did you see that exception before? If not I will just try to use vtk directly for the visualization. Just for clarification: The output file contains the deformed mesh? Is this correct? So I can just display it in vtk. In my case it also contains TENSORS cauchy_stress from the post processing. Thank you, Kathrin

Fwd: Re: Correct element orientation for tetrahedral mesh

by Kathrin Sobe

Hi Robert, I just want to give feedback about the topic of loading mesh data from a .bdf file: The solution is currently to do a conversation into vtk and to load the data from vtk: I visualizated the mesh from the Nastran .bdf file with vtk. The internal data structure in vtk is vtkunstructuredgrid. It is possible to export the vtk grid into a file with the vtkunstructuredgridwriter as ascii file. Afterwards it was possible to load the mesh from the .vtk file. Just to share, this is a possible solution. Thanks, Kathrin Regards, >> Kathrin >> >> 2017-08-30 19:08 GMT+02:00 Robert Cimrman <cimrman3(a)ntc.zcu.cz>: >> >> Hi Kathrin, >>> >>> could you send me the mesh (off-list if needed)? >>> >>> r. >>> >>> On 08/30/2017 03:31 PM, Kathrin Sobe wrote: >>> >>> Hi Robert, >>>> >>>> I was able to load a mesh from a nastran .bdf file.
