◆ ComputeKRMmatricesGlobal()

void chrono::fea::ChElementTetraCorot_4_P::ComputeKRMmatricesGlobal	(	ChMatrixRef	H,
		double	Kfactor,
		double	Rfactor = `0`,
		double	Mfactor = `0`
	)

overridevirtual

Sets H as the global stiffness matrix K, scaled by Kfactor.

Optionally, also superimposes global damping matrix R, scaled by Rfactor, and global mass matrix M multiplied by Mfactor.

Implements chrono::fea::ChElementBase.

◆ ComputeNF()

void chrono::fea::ChElementTetraCorot_4_P::ComputeNF	(	const double	U,
		const double	V,
		const double	W,
		ChVectorDynamic<> &	Qi,
		double &	detJ,
		const ChVectorDynamic<> &	F,
		ChVectorDynamic<> *	state_x,
		ChVectorDynamic<> *	state_w
	)

overridevirtual

Evaluate N'*F , where N is some type of shape function evaluated at U,V,W coordinates of the volume, each ranging in 0..+1 F is a load, N'*F is the resulting generalized load Returns also det[J] with J=[dx/du,..], that might be useful in gauss quadrature.

Parameters

U	parametric coordinate in volume
V	parametric coordinate in volume
W	parametric coordinate in volume
Qi	Return result of N'*F here, maybe with offset block_offset
detJ	Return det[J] here
F	Input F vector, size is = n.field coords.
state_x	if != 0, update state (pos. part) to this, then evaluate Q
state_w	if != 0, update state (speed part) to this, then evaluate Q

Implements chrono::ChLoadableUVW.

◆ GetNodeNumCoordsPosLevel()

virtual unsigned int chrono::fea::ChElementTetraCorot_4_P::GetNodeNumCoordsPosLevel ( unsigned int n )

inlineoverridevirtual

Get the number of coordinates from the specified node that are used by this element.

Note that this may be different from the value returned by GetNode(n)->GetNumCoordsVelLevel().

Implements chrono::fea::ChElementBase.

◆ GetNumCoordsPosLevel()

virtual unsigned int chrono::fea::ChElementTetraCorot_4_P::GetNumCoordsPosLevel ( )

inlineoverridevirtual

Get the number of coordinates in the field used by the referenced nodes.

This is for example the size (number of rows/columns) of the local stiffness matrix.

Implements chrono::fea::ChElementBase.

◆ GetPgradient()

ChVectorN< double, 3 > chrono::fea::ChElementTetraCorot_4_P::GetPgradient ( )

Returns the gradient of P (note that the tetrahedron 4 nodes is a linear element, thus the gradient is constant in the entire volume).

It is in the original undeformed unrotated reference.

◆ GetStateBlock()

void chrono::fea::ChElementTetraCorot_4_P::GetStateBlock ( ChVectorDynamic<> & D )

overridevirtual

Fills the D vector with the current field values at the nodes of the element, with proper ordering.

If the D vector has not the size of this->GetNumCoordsPosLevel(), it will be resized. For corotational elements, field is assumed in local reference!

Implements chrono::fea::ChElementBase.

◆ ShapeFunctions()

void chrono::fea::ChElementTetraCorot_4_P::ShapeFunctions	(	ShapeVector &	N,
		double	z0,
		double	z1,
		double	z2
	)

virtual

Fills the N shape function matrix with the values of shape functions at zi parametric coordinates, where z0=1 at 1st vertex, z1=1 at second, z2 = 1 at third (volumetric shape functions).

The 4th is computed form the first 3. All ranging in [0...1]. NOTE! actually N should be a 3row, 12 column sparse matrix, as N = [n1*eye(3) n2*eye(3) n3*eye(3) n4*eye(3)]; , but to avoid wasting zero and repeated elements, here it stores only the n1 n2 n3 n4 values in a 1 row, 4 columns matrix!
