*MAT_124 (PLASTICITY_COMPRESSION_TENSION)

LS-DYNA Input Interface KeywordDefines an isotropic elasto-plastic material with tension and compression yield stress curves as a function of plastic strain.

Rate effects are modeled by Cowper-Symonds models or by curves. Additional viscosity can be defined by Prony series Maxwell model.

Comments

  1. This keyword maps to /MAT/LAW66, /VISC/PRONY and failure model (/FAIL).
  2. This material can be used for shell or solid elements.
  3. The option “_TITLE” can be added to the end of this keyword. When “_TITLE” is included, an extra 80 characters long line is added after the keyword input line which allows an entity title to be defined.
