Define how the approach
velocity at a crushing interface influences a material's resistance to
crushing.
The option is used, if necessary, to define how the approach velocity at a
crushing interface influences a material's resistance to crushing. It must be
used as a suboption of the
CRUSH STRESS option.
Abaqus/Explicit
uses a regularization scheme for the evaluation of the crush stress scaling
factor as a function of relative velocity.
The
CZone for Abaqus
algorithm requires that the scaling factor be the same for all plies in a
composite laminate. Therefore, identical
CRUSH STRESS VELOCITY FACTOR
definitions must be used in all materials referenced by the same composite
shell section definition.
