fedoo.constitutivelaw.ShellLaminateNonLinear

class ShellLaminateNonLinear(list_mat, list_thickness, n_thickness_points=3, k=1, name='')

Layered shell integrated from nonlinear plane-stress material points.

Each layer owns an independent copy of its material law and its internal variables. Membrane and bending stresses and tangents are integrated at Gauss–Legendre points in every layer. Transverse shear is treated elastically using the three-dimensional initial tangent of each material and the shell correction factor k.

This implementation is restricted to small-strain material laws. For plasticity (or any law needing a plane-stress return mapping) use a Simcoon law, e.g. fedoo.constitutivelaw.Simcoon("EPICP", props); the pedagogical ElastoPlasticity is 3D-only and does not support "2Dstress".

Parameters:

• list_mat (sequence of ConstitutiveLaw or str) – Material law, or registered material name, for every layer, ordered from the bottom to the top surface.

• list_thickness (sequence of float) – Thickness of every layer.

• n_thickness_points (int or sequence of int, default=3) – Number of Gauss–Legendre points in each layer.

• k (float, default=1) – Transverse shear correction factor.

• name (str, optional) – Name of the shell constitutive law.
