Package for testing abaqus user element subroutines for implementing cohesive zone models

Project Description

This repository has python package czmtestkit developed for generating abaqus cae models required to test abaqus user subroutines for implementing cohesive zone models as well as post processing the results. The documentation for the package is avaiable on https://nmudunuru.github.io/czmtestkitDocs/

Software v1.0.0-a.3.0.0

a.3.0.0

Model class

a.2.3.1

output class in purPython module

a.2.2.1

Added functionality to purPython module. Functions to:

• Split force displacement data to elastic and fracture regimes.
• Optimizing emperical model paramters by curve fitting experimental or simulated data.
• Compare predicted data from emperical models to observed data.

---

NOTE

New library added to the environment. Please update your CZ environment.

a.2.1.1

Different mesh seed for crack

a.2.1.0

analyticalModel class for analytical results corresponding to the standardized tests.

a.2.0.0

• Classes to define part and model properties.
• Functions to generate assemblies and input files for mixed mode characterization using standardized tests. (DCB, ADCB, ASLB, SLB, ENF)
• Example standarized test cases.

a.1.0.0

• Funcitons to generate input files for single element and non standard tests with and without substrates.
• Sample test cases for single element test.
• Module functions for generating parts required for standardized tests are available.
• History output can be extracted from abaqus output data base.
• Magnitudes of load and displacement extracted from the history output can be plotted.

Features under development

• Read class properties from dictonary.
• Create input class to write properties to a dictonary.
• Extend package to include fortran based user element subroutines for the cohesive zone.
