In explicit calculations it would be interesting to represent well the case of elements that detach from the base, due to breakage of the material. Useful to simulate impacts or explosions.
It would be very interesting for geotechnics to have models such as Hardening soil model or Soft soil model, included in programs such as PLAXIS, and specific models for concrete such as those found in ABAQUS or ANSYS.
In a linear calculation where the model is maintained it could be valid. With respect to this, it would be useful to be able to obtain an envelope of results from different hypotheses.
If the calculation is nonlinear, phase 2 should inherit stresses…
I'm trying to apply the MFRONT library and I can't. I have copied the dll into the directory and enter the material type in CCX>, but it doesn't work. Has anyone managed to work with it?
Thank you very much for the responses disla and MikeMcMullen. It is clear that the tension-only and compression-only models are linear.
I would like to find the best material model available in CCX to simulate the behavior of concrete, maybe it is …
