*SIMPLE SHEAR TEST DATA

Used to provide simple shear test data.

This option is used to provide simple shear test data. It can be used only in conjunction with the HYPERFOAM option.

There are no parameters associated with this option.

 

Data lines to specify simple shear test data for a hyperfoam

First line
  1. Nominal shear stress, TS.

  2. Nominal shear strain, γ.

  3. Nominal transverse stress, TT (normal to edge with shear stress). This stress value is optional but strongly recommended. If given, a more accurate material response will be obtained.

Repeat this data line as often as necessary to give the stress-strain data.
