Constitutive laws

This page should grow to give overview of all constitutive laws in Yade. The purpose is twofold:

  1. Names of respective classes do not say much and it seems that lot of code is duplicated; should improve orientation in material models available
  2. Not all laws are in the same development stage. Some of them are well validated while others are purely experimental. Users should quickly find out which ones are safe to use in this table.

Yade users are strongly encouraged to choose one of the green laws unless a reason exist to decide otherwise.

Class description dev. status validated publications example script maintainer(s)
Law2_ScGeom_FrictPhys_CundallStrack The traditional Cundall's linear elastic-plastic law. This law has three parameters : tangential stiffness, normal stiffness, and friction coefficient - it modelizes dry contacts (no tensile force allowed). mature yes (>10 papers) e.g. Scholtes2009c, Chareyre2012a triax-basic.py Bruno Chareyre
Law2_ScGeom6D_CohFrictPhys_CohesionMoment An augmented version of Law2_ScGeom_FrictPhys_CundallStrack with cohesion and torques at contacts. Creep is optional. mature yes not yet triax-cohesive.py Bruno Chareyre
Law2_ScGeom_MindlinPhys_Mindlin The non-linear elastic Hertz-Mindlin no-slip solution contact law. The law also allows for rolling resistance and non-linear viscous damping. mature yes Modenese2012b mindlin.py Chiara Modenese
Law2_ScGeom_WirePhys_WirePM A contact law for steel wires which is defined by a piece-wise linear stress-strain curve. The contact law considers tensile forces only. mature yes Thoeni2011, Bertrand2008 WireMatPM/wirecontacttest.py WireMatPM/wiretensiltest.py Klaus Thoeni
Law2_CylScGeom_FrictPhys_CundallStrack Similar to Law2_ScGeom_FrictPhys_CundallStrack but adapted to interactions between spheres and chained cylinders. in development more or less not yet chained-cylinder-roots.py Bruno Chareyre, François Kneib
Law2_CylScGeom6D_CohFrictPhys_CohesionMoment Similar to Law2_ScGeom6D_CohFrictPhys_CohesionMoment but adapted to interactions between spheres and chained cylinders. in development no not yet CohesiveCylinderSphere.py François Kneib, Bruno Chareyre
Law2_ScGeom_ViscoFrictPhys_CundallStrack Generalized Maxwell model of visco-elasto-plastic interactions (2 springs and 2 dashpots for each force component). in development no - Bruno Chareyre
Law2_SomeGeom_CpmPhys_Cpm A generic class for inheritance by more specialized functors (e.g.Law2_ScGeom_CpmPhys_Cpm). Not to be used in simulations.
