Member Function Documentation
◆ SetPoissonRatio()
| void chrono::fea::ChContinuumElastic::SetPoissonRatio | ( | double | v | ) |
Set the Poisson ratio, as v=-transverse_strain/axial_strain, so takes into account the 'squeezing' effect of materials that are pulled.
Note: v=0.5 means perfectly incompressible material, that could give problems with some type of solvers. Setting v also changes G.
◆ SetShearModulus()
| void chrono::fea::ChContinuumElastic::SetShearModulus | ( | double | G | ) |
Set the shear modulus G, in Pa (N/m^2).
Setting G also changes Poisson ratio v.
