Description

Base interface for structural damping of beam sections of Cosserat type, where xyz force "n" and xyz torque "m" are a 6-dimensional function of generalized strain speeds, "e'" traction/shear speed and "k'" curvature speed, as: {n,m}=f({e',k'}) Children classes implement this function in different ways.

◆ ComputeDampingMatrix()

void chrono::fea::ChDampingCosserat::ComputeDampingMatrix ( ChMatrix66d R,
const ChVector3d dstrain_e,
const ChVector3d dstrain_k 
)
virtual

Compute the 6x6 tangent material damping matrix, ie the jacobian [Rm]=dstress/dstrainspeed.

This must be overridden by subclasses if an analytical solution is known (preferred for high performance), otherwise the base behaviour here is to compute [Rm] by numerical differentiation calling ComputeStress() multiple times.

Parameters
R6x6 material stiffness matrix values here
dstrain_ecurrent strain speed (deformation part)
dstrain_kcurrent strain speed (curvature part)

Reimplemented in chrono::fea::ChDampingCosseratRayleigh, and chrono::fea::ChDampingCosseratLinear.

◆ ComputeStress()

virtual void chrono::fea::ChDampingCosserat::ComputeStress ( ChVector3d stress_n,
ChVector3d stress_m,
const ChVector3d dstrain_e,
const ChVector3d dstrain_k 
)
pure virtual

Compute the generalized cut force and cut torque, caused by structural damping, given actual deformation speed and curvature speed.

This MUST be implemented by subclasses.

Parameters
stress_nlocal stress (generalized force), x component = traction along beam
stress_mlocal stress (generalized torque), x component = torsion torque along beam
dstrain_elocal strain speed (deformation); x elongation speed; y,z shear speeds
dstrain_klocal strain speed (curvature); x torsion speed; y, z line curvature speeds

Implemented in chrono::fea::ChDampingCosseratRayleigh, and chrono::fea::ChDampingCosseratLinear.
