DeformationPlasticity(...)

This method creates a DeformationPlasticity object.

Path

mdb.models[name].materials[name].DeformationPlasticity
session.odbs[name].materials[name].DeformationPlasticity

Required arguments

table

A sequence of sequences of Floats specifying the items described below.

Optional arguments

temperatureDependency

A Boolean specifying whether the data depend on temperature. The default value is OFF.

Table data

  • Young's modulus, E.

  • Poisson's ratio, ν.

  • Yield stress, σ0.

  • Exponent, n.

  • Yield offset, α.

  • Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.

Return value

A DeformationPlasticity object.

Exceptions

RangeError.

setValues(...)

This method modifies the DeformationPlasticity object.

Required arguments

None.

Optional arguments

The optional arguments to setValues are the same as the arguments to the DeformationPlasticity method.

Return value

None.

Exceptions

RangeError.

Members

The DeformationPlasticity object has members with the same names and descriptions as the arguments to the DeformationPlasticity method.
