v6.04.254 SSNV25 4 — Elementary validation of the damage law GTN in plane deformation with simulations of a volume element under simple tension

Summary:

This test case makes it possible to validate the algorithm for integrating the local and gradient Gurson—Tvergaard—Needleman damage law (\(\mathit{GTN}\)) with underintegrated or mixed standard finite elements in large deformations. A volume element is modelled in simple traction.

The various models treated are:

• Modeling A (\(2D\)): D_ PLAN_SI.

• Modeling B (\(2D\)): D_ PLAN_GRAD_VARI.

• Modeling C (\(2D\)): D_ PLAN_GRAD_INCO.

• Modeling D (\(3D\)): 3D_SI.

• Modeling E (\(3D\)): 3D_ GRAD_VARI.

• Modeling F (\(3D\)): 3D_ GRAD_INCO.
