Add the plasticity to Shape Memory Alloys model

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello everyone,

I would like to add the plasticity module to the Shape Memory Alloys models. I already tried to add it: - I inserted the plasticity module under the Linear Elastic Material model. - Then I added the Shape Memory Alloy model. - Under the Shape Memory Alloy model I added the External Strain module, where I selected the Strain tensor as Strain input, and the Plastic strain tensor under the Strain tensor.

It didn't work. I am now wondering if this way is completely wrong and, in any case, how can I add the Plasticity module to the Shape Memory Alloys material model.

Thanks, Valentina

Thank you,

Valentina
