3d goal-oriented mesh adaptivity in elastoplasticity problems

The code deals with solving an elastoplasticity problem with linear isotropic hardening. At each load/displacement step, the error based on a prescribed quantity of interest (Goal-oriented error estimation) is computed by using the dual-weighted residual method.

Based on a prescribed error bound and estimated elementwise errors, the mesh is then refined/coarsened. Afterwards, the solution is projected to the new mesh and the analysis process is repeated.

The applied methodology and the solved numerical examples can be found in the following paper:

‍Ghorashi SSh, Rabczuk T.: "Goal-Oriented Error Estimation and Mesh Adaptivity in 3d Elastoplasticity Problems". International Journal of Fracture. Accepted. 2016.

Running the code

The code contains several examples consisting of the three examples presented in the aforementioned paper. To run each of them you can switch to them, e.g.

git checkout Thick_tube_internal_pressure
git checkout Perforated_strip_displacement_3d
git checkout Cantiliver_II_beam_3d

Then by compiling it using the following commands

cmake -DDEAL_II_DIR=/path/to/deal.II .
make

you can run it by typing

./elastoplastic Thick_tube_internal_pressure.prm

or

./elastoplastic Perforated_strip_displacement_3d.prm

or

./elastoplastic Cantiliver_II_beam_3d.prm

The three named input files are already in the current directory, and have the following options:

set polynomial degree [defines the polynomial order of
the (primal) problem]
set number of initial refinements [defines how many times the mesh
is globally refined to construct
the initial mesh]
set refinement strategy [can be chosen as global for
global refinement or percentage
in order to mesh adaptation with
the assumption of refinement of
30% of the elements with higher
errors and coarsening of 3% of
element with the least errors
(these percentages can be
changed inside the code)]
set error estimation strategy [can be set kelly_error or
residual_error or
weighted_residual_error to apply
different error estimation
methods (see the paper for more
information)]
set maximum relative error [set a criterion value for
performing the mesh adaptivity]
set output directory [determine a directory to save
the output results]
set transfer solution [by assuming true, the solution
variables at each step are
transferred to the next
load/displacement step]
set base mesh [determines the problem:
Timoshenko beam /
Thick_tube_internal_pressure /
Perforated_strip_tension /
Cantiliver_beam_3d]
set elasticity modulus
set Poissons ratio
set yield stress
set isotropic hardening parameter
set show stresses [by setting true or false,
determines if the stress results
be saved or not (to save the
analysis time, we can set it as
false when we do not need to
illustrate them)]

The PointHistory class

As was mentioned in the introduction, we have to store the old stress in quadrature point so that we can compute the residual forces at this point during the next time step. This alone would not warrant a structure with only one member, but in more complicated applications, we would have to store more information in quadrature points as well, such as the history variables of plasticity, etc. In essence, we have to store everything that affects the present state of the material here, which in plasticity is determined by the deformation history variables.

We will not give this class any meaningful functionality beyond being able to store data, i.e. there are no constructors, destructors, or other member functions. In such cases of ‘dumb’ classes, we usually opt to declare them as struct rather than class, to indicate that they are closer to C-style structures than C++-style classes.

The ConstitutiveLaw class template

This class provides an interface for a constitutive law, i.e., for the relationship between strain \(\varepsilon(\mathbf u)\) and stress \(\sigma\). In this example we are using an elastoplastic material behavior with linear, isotropic hardening. Such materials are characterized by Young's modulus \(E\), Poisson's ratio \(\nu\), the initial yield stress \(\sigma_0\) and the isotropic hardening parameter \(\gamma\). For \(\gamma = 0\) we obtain perfect elastoplastic behavior.

As explained in the paper that describes this program, the first Newton steps are solved with a completely elastic material model to avoid having to deal with both nonlinearities (plasticity and contact) at once. To this end, this class has a function set_sigma_0() that we use later on to simply set \(\sigma_0\) to a very large value – essentially guaranteeing that the actual stress will not exceed it, and thereby producing an elastic material. When we are ready to use a plastic model, we set \(\sigma_0\) back to its proper value, using the same function. As a result of this approach, we need to leave sigma_0 as the only non-const member variable of this class.

  };
 

The constructor of the ConstitutiveLaw class sets the required material parameter for our deformable body. Material parameters for elastic isotropic media can be defined in a variety of ways, such as the pair \(E, \nu\) (elastic modulus and Poisson's number), using the Lame parameters \(\lambda,mu\) or several other commonly used conventions. Here, the constructor takes a description of material parameters in the form of \(E,\nu\), but since this turns out to these are not the coefficients that appear in the equations of the plastic projector, we immediately convert them into the more suitable set \(\kappa,\mu\) of bulk and shear moduli. In addition, the constructor takes \(\sigma_0\) (the yield stress absent any plastic strain) and \(\gamma\) (the hardening parameter) as arguments. In this constructor, we also compute the two principal components of the stress-strain relation and its linearization.

ConstitutiveLaw::get_stress_strain_tensor

This is the principal component of the constitutive law. It projects the deviatoric part of the stresses in a quadrature point back to the yield stress (i.e., the original yield stress \(\sigma_0\) plus the term that describes linear isotropic hardening). We need this function to calculate the nonlinear residual in PlasticityContactProblem::residual_nl_system. The computations follow the formulas laid out in the introduction.

The function returns whether the quadrature point is plastic to allow for some statistics downstream on how many of the quadrature points are plastic and how many are elastic.

ConstitutiveLaw::get_linearized_stress_strain_tensors

This function returns the linearized stress strain tensor, linearized around the solution \(u^{i-1}\) of the previous Newton step \(i-1\). The parameter strain_tensor (commonly denoted \(\varepsilon(u^{i-1})\)) must be passed as an argument, and serves as the linearization point. The function returns the derivative of the nonlinear constitutive law in the variable stress_strain_tensor, as well as the stress-strain tensor of the linearized problem in stress_strain_tensor_linearized. See PlasticityContactProblem::assemble_nl_system where this function is used.

Finally, below we will need a function that computes the rotation matrix induced by a displacement at a given point. In fact, of course, the displacement at a single point only has a direction and a magnitude, it is the change in direction and magnitude that induces rotations. In effect, the rotation matrix can be computed from the gradients of a displacement, or, more specifically, from the curl.

The formulas by which the rotation matrices are determined are a little awkward, especially in 3d. For 2d, there is a simpler way, so we implement this function twice, once for 2d and once for 3d, so that we can compile and use the program in both space dimensions if so desired – after all, deal.II is all about dimension independent programming and reuse of algorithm thoroughly tested with cheap computations in 2d, for the more expensive computations in 3d. Here is one case, where we have to implement different algorithms for 2d and 3d, but then can write the rest of the program in a way that is independent of the space dimension.

So, without further ado to the 2d implementation:

  get_rotation_matrix (const std::vector<Tensor<1,2> > &grad_u)
  {

First, compute the curl of the velocity field from the gradients. Note that we are in 2d, so the rotation is a scalar:

  const double curl = (grad_u[1][0] - grad_u[0][1]);
 

From this, compute the angle of rotation:

  const double angle = std::atan (curl);
 
inline ::VectorizedArray< Number, width > atan(const ::VectorizedArray< Number, width > &x)

And from this, build the antisymmetric rotation matrix:

  const double t[2][2] = {{ cos(angle), sin(angle) },
  {-sin(angle), cos(angle) }
  };
  return Tensor<2,2>(t);
  }
 
 

The 3d case is a little more contrived:

  get_rotation_matrix (const std::vector<Tensor<1,3> > &grad_u)
  {

Again first compute the curl of the velocity field. This time, it is a real vector:

  const Point<3> curl (grad_u[2][1] - grad_u[1][2],
  grad_u[0][2] - grad_u[2][0],
  grad_u[1][0] - grad_u[0][1]);
 

From this vector, using its magnitude, compute the tangent of the angle of rotation, and from it the actual angle:

  const double tan_angle = std::sqrt(curl*curl);
  const double angle = std::atan (tan_angle);
 

Now, here's one problem: if the angle of rotation is too small, that means that there is no rotation going on (for example a translational motion). In that case, the rotation matrix is the identity matrix.

The reason why we stress that is that in this case we have that tan_angle==0. Further down, we need to divide by that number in the computation of the axis of rotation, and we would get into trouble when dividing doing so. Therefore, let's shortcut this and simply return the identity matrix if the angle of rotation is really small:

  if (angle < 1e-9)
  {
  static const double rotation[3][3]
  = {{ 1, 0, 0}, { 0, 1, 0 }, { 0, 0, 1 } };
  const Tensor<2,3> rot(rotation);
  return rot;
  }
 

Otherwise compute the real rotation matrix. The algorithm for this is not exactly obvious, but can be found in a number of books, particularly on computer games where rotation is a very frequent operation. Online, you can find a description at http://www.makegames.com/3drotation/ and (this particular form, with the signs as here) at http://www.gamedev.net/reference/articles/article1199.asp:

  const double c = std::cos(angle);
  const double s = std::sin(angle);
  const double t = 1-c;
 
  const Point<3> axis = curl/tan_angle;
  const double rotation[3][3]
  = {{
  t *axis[0] *axis[0]+c,
  t *axis[0] *axis[1]+s *axis[2],
  t *axis[0] *axis[2]-s *axis[1]
  },
  {
  t *axis[0] *axis[1]-s *axis[2],
  t *axis[1] *axis[1]+c,
  t *axis[1] *axis[2]+s *axis[0]
  },
  {
  t *axis[0] *axis[2]+s *axis[1],
  t *axis[1] *axis[1]-s *axis[0],
  t *axis[2] *axis[2]+c
  }
  };
  return Tensor<2,3>(rotation);
  }
 
 
::VectorizedArray< Number, width > cos(const ::VectorizedArray< Number, width > &)
::VectorizedArray< Number, width > sin(const ::VectorizedArray< Number, width > &)

Equation data: Body forces, boundary forces, incremental boundary values

The BodyForce class

Body forces are generally mediated by one of the four basic physical types of forces: gravity, strong and weak interaction, and electromagnetism. Unless one wants to consider subatomic objects (for which quasistatic deformation is irrelevant and an inappropriate description anyway), only gravity and electromagnetic forces need to be considered. Let us, for simplicity assume that our body has a certain mass density, but is either non-magnetic and not electrically conducting or that there are no significant electromagnetic fields around. In that case, the body forces are simply rho g, where rho is the material density and g is a vector in negative z-direction with magnitude 9.81 m/s^2. Both the density and g are defined in the function, and we take as the density 7700 kg/m^3, a value commonly assumed for steel.

To be a little more general and to be able to do computations in 2d as well, we realize that the body force is always a function returning a dim dimensional vector. We assume that gravity acts along the negative direction of the last, i.e. dim-1th coordinate. The rest of the implementation of this function should be mostly self-explanatory given similar definitions in previous example programs. Note that the body force is independent of the location; to avoid compiler warnings about unused function arguments, we therefore comment out the name of the first argument of the vector_value function:

  template <int dim>
  class BodyForce : public Function<dim>
  {
  public:
  BodyForce ();
 
  virtual
  void
  vector_value (const Point<dim> &p,
  Vector<double> &values) const override;

  const unsigned int n_points = points.size();
 
  Assert (value_list.size() == n_points,
  ExcDimensionMismatch (value_list.size(), n_points));
 
  for (unsigned int p=0; p<n_points; ++p)
  BodyForce<dim>::vector_value (points[p],
  value_list[p]);
  }
 
virtual void vector_value_list(const std::vector< Point< dim > > &points, std::vector< Vector< RangeNumberType > > &values) const
virtual void vector_value(const Point< dim > &p, Vector< RangeNumberType > &values) const

The IncrementalBoundaryValue class

In addition to body forces, movement can be induced by boundary forces and forced boundary displacement. The latter case is equivalent to forces being chosen in such a way that they induce certain displacement.

For quasistatic displacement, typical boundary forces would be pressure on a body, or tangential friction against another body. We chose a somewhat simpler case here: we prescribe a certain movement of (parts of) the boundary, or at least of certain components of the displacement vector. We describe this by another vector-valued function that, for a given point on the boundary, returns the prescribed displacement.

Since we have a time-dependent problem, the displacement increment of the boundary equals the displacement accumulated during the length of the timestep. The class therefore has to know both the present time and the length of the present time step, and can then approximate the incremental displacement as the present velocity times the present timestep.

For the purposes of this program, we choose a simple form of boundary displacement: we displace the top boundary with constant velocity downwards. The rest of the boundary is either going to be fixed (and is then described using an object of type Functions::ZeroFunction) or free (Neumann-type, in which case nothing special has to be done). The implementation of the class describing the constant downward motion should then be obvious using the knowledge we gained through all the previous example programs:

  template <int dim>
  class IncrementalBoundaryValues : public Function<dim>
  {
  public:
  IncrementalBoundaryValues (const double present_time,
  const double present_timestep);

  const double present_timestep;
  };

  {}

The PlasticityContactProblem class template

This is the main class of this program and supplies all functions and variables needed to describe the nonlinear contact problem. It is close to step-41 but with some additional features like handling hanging nodes, a Newton method, using Trilinos and p4est for parallel distributed computing. To deal with hanging nodes makes life a bit more complicated since we need another AffineConstraints object now. We create a Newton method for the active set method for the contact situation and to handle the nonlinear operator for the constitutive law.

The general layout of this class is very much like for most other tutorial programs. To make our life a bit easier, this class reads a set of input parameters from an input file. These parameters, using the ParameterHandler class, are declared in the declare_parameters function (which is static so that it can be called before we even create an object of the current type), and a ParameterHandler object that has been used to read an input file will then be passed to the constructor of this class.

The remaining member functions are by and large as we have seen in several of the other tutorial programs, though with additions for the current nonlinear system. We will comment on their purpose as we get to them further below.

  template <int dim>
  class ElastoPlasticProblem
  {
  public:
  ElastoPlasticProblem (const ParameterHandler &prm);
 
  void run ();
 
  static void declare_parameters (ParameterHandler &prm);
 
  private:
  void make_grid ();
  void setup_system ();
  void compute_dirichlet_constraints ();
  void assemble_newton_system (const TrilinosWrappers::MPI::Vector &linearization_point,
  const TrilinosWrappers::MPI::Vector &delta_linearization_point);
  void compute_nonlinear_residual (const TrilinosWrappers::MPI::Vector &linearization_point);
  void solve_newton_system ();
  void solve_newton ();
  void compute_error ();
  void compute_error_residual (const TrilinosWrappers::MPI::Vector &tmp_solution);
  void refine_grid ();
  void move_mesh (const TrilinosWrappers::MPI::Vector &displacement) const;
  void output_results (const std::string &filename_base);
 

Next are three functions that handle the history variables stored in each quadrature point. The first one is called before the first timestep to set up a pristine state for the history variables. It only works on those quadrature points on cells that belong to the present processor:

  void setup_quadrature_point_history ();
 

The second one updates the history variables at the end of each timestep:

  void update_quadrature_point_history ();
 

As far as member variables are concerned, we start with ones that we use to indicate the MPI universe this program runs on, and then two numbers telling us how many participating processors there are, and where in this world we are., a stream we use to let exactly one processor produce output to the console (see step-17) and a variable that is used to time the various sections of the program:

  MPI_Comm mpi_communicator;
  const unsigned int n_mpi_processes;
  const unsigned int this_mpi_process;
  TimerOutput computing_timer;
 

The next group describes the mesh and the finite element space. In particular, for this parallel program, the finite element space has associated with it variables that indicate which degrees of freedom live on the current processor (the index sets, see also step-40 and the Parallel computing with multiple processors using distributed memory documentation module) as well as a variety of constraints: those imposed by hanging nodes, by Dirichlet boundary conditions, and by the active set of contact nodes. Of the three AffineConstraints objects defined here, the first only contains hanging node constraints, the second also those associated with Dirichlet boundary conditions, and the third these plus the contact constraints.

The variable active_set consists of those degrees of freedom constrained by the contact, and we use fraction_of_plastic_q_points_per_cell to keep track of the fraction of quadrature points on each cell where the stress equals the yield stress. The latter is only used to create graphical output showing the plastic zone, but not for any further computation; the variable is a member variable of this class since the information is computed as a by-product of computing the residual, but is used only much later. (Note that the vector is a vector of length equal to the number of active cells on the local mesh; it is never used to exchange information between processors and can therefore be a regular deal.II vector.)

  const unsigned int n_initial_global_refinements;
 
  const unsigned int fe_degree;
  DoFHandler<dim> dof_handler;
 
  IndexSet locally_owned_dofs;
  IndexSet locally_relevant_dofs;
 
  AffineConstraints<double> constraints_hanging_nodes;
  AffineConstraints<double> constraints_dirichlet_and_hanging_nodes;
 
  Vector<float> fraction_of_plastic_q_points_per_cell;
 

One difference of this program is that we declare the quadrature formula in the class declaration. The reason is that in all the other programs, it didn't do much harm if we had used different quadrature formulas when computing the matrix and the right hand side, for example. However, in the present case it does: we store information in the quadrature points, so we have to make sure all parts of the program agree on where they are and how many there are on each cell. Thus, let us first declare the quadrature formula that will be used throughout...

  const QGauss<dim> quadrature_formula;
  const QGauss<dim - 1> face_quadrature_formula;
 

... and then also have a vector of history objects, one per quadrature point on those cells for which we are responsible (i.e. we don't store history data for quadrature points on cells that are owned by other processors).

  std::vector<PointHistory<dim> > quadrature_point_history;
 

The way this object is accessed is through a user pointer that each cell, face, or edge holds: it is a void* pointer that can be used by application programs to associate arbitrary data to cells, faces, or edges. What the program actually does with this data is within its own responsibility, the library just allocates some space for these pointers, and application programs can set and read the pointers for each of these objects.

The next block of variables corresponds to the solution and the linear systems we need to form. In particular, this includes the Newton matrix and right hand side; the vector that corresponds to the residual (i.e., the Newton right hand side) but from which we have not eliminated the various constraints and that is used to determine which degrees of freedom need to be constrained in the next iteration; and a vector that corresponds to the diagonal of the \(B\) matrix briefly mentioned in the introduction and discussed in the accompanying paper.

The next block of variables is then related to the time dependent nature of the problem: they denote the length of the time interval which we want to simulate, the present time and number of time step, and length of present timestep:

  double present_time;
  double present_timestep;
  double end_time;
  unsigned int timestep_no;
 

The next block contains the variables that describe the material response:

  const double e_modulus, nu, sigma_0, gamma;
  ConstitutiveLaw<dim> constitutive_law;
 

And then there is an assortment of other variables that are used to identify the mesh we are asked to build as selected by the parameter file, the obstacle that is being pushed into the deformable body, the mesh refinement strategy, whether to transfer the solution from one mesh to the next, and how many mesh refinement cycles to perform. As possible, we mark these kinds of variables as const to help the reader identify which ones may or may not be modified later on (the output directory being an exception – it is never modified outside the constructor but it is awkward to initialize in the member-initializer-list following the colon in the constructor since there we have only one shot at setting it; the same is true for the mesh refinement criterion):

  const std::string base_mesh;
 
  struct RefinementStrategy
  {
  enum value
  {
  refine_global,
  refine_percentage,
  refine_fix_dofs
  };
  };
  typename RefinementStrategy::value refinement_strategy;
 
  struct ErrorEstimationStrategy
  {
  enum value
  {
  kelly_error,
  residual_error,
  weighted_residual_error,
  weighted_kelly_error
  };
  };
  typename ErrorEstimationStrategy::value error_estimation_strategy;
 
  Vector<float> estimated_error_per_cell;
 
  const bool transfer_solution;
  std::string output_dir;
  TableHandler table_results,
  table_results_2,
  table_results_3;
 
  unsigned int current_refinement_cycle;
 
  const double max_relative_error;
  float relative_error;
 
  const bool show_stresses;
  };
 
 

Implementation of the PlasticityContactProblem class

PlasticityContactProblem::declare_parameters

Let us start with the declaration of run-time parameters that can be selected in the input file. These values will be read back in the constructor of this class to initialize the member variables of this class:

The PlasticityContactProblem constructor

Given the declarations of member variables as well as the declarations of run-time parameters that are read from the input file, there is nothing surprising in this constructor. In the body we initialize the mesh refinement strategy and the output directory, creating such a directory if necessary.

PlasticityContactProblem::make_grid

The next block deals with constructing the starting mesh. We will use the following helper function and the first block of the make_grid() to construct a mesh that corresponds to a half sphere. deal.II has a function that creates such a mesh, but it is in the wrong location and facing the wrong direction, so we need to shift and rotate it a bit before using it.

For later reference, as described in the documentation of GridGenerator::half_hyper_ball(), the flat surface of the halfsphere has boundary indicator zero, while the remainder has boundary indicator one.

PlasticityContactProblem::setup_system

The next piece in the puzzle is to set up the DoFHandler, resize vectors and take care of various other status variables such as index sets and constraint matrices.

In the following, each group of operations is put into a brace-enclosed block that is being timed by the variable declared at the top of the block (the constructor of the TimerOutput::Scope variable starts the timed section, the destructor that is called at the end of the block stops it again).

  template <int dim>
  void
  ElastoPlasticProblem<dim>::setup_system ()
  {
  /* setup dofs and get index sets for locally owned and relevant dofs */
  TimerOutput::Scope t(computing_timer, "Setup");
  {

  << dof_handler.n_dofs()

  }

  {

  constraints_hanging_nodes);
  constraints_hanging_nodes.close();

  }

  {

  fraction_of_plastic_q_points_per_cell.reinit(triangulation.n_active_cells());
  }
 
IndexSet extract_locally_relevant_dofs(const DoFHandler< dim, spacedim > &dof_handler)

Finally, we set up sparsity patterns and matrices. We temporarily (ab)use the system matrix to also build the (diagonal) matrix that we use in eliminating degrees of freedom that are in contact with the obstacle, but we then immediately set the Newton matrix back to zero.

  {
  TimerOutput::Scope t(computing_timer, "Setup: matrix");

PlasticityContactProblem::compute_dirichlet_constraints

This function, broken out of the preceding one, computes the constraints associated with Dirichlet-type boundary conditions and puts them into the constraints_dirichlet_and_hanging_nodes variable by merging with the constraints that come from hanging nodes.

As laid out in the introduction, we need to distinguish between two cases:

  • If the domain is a box, we set the displacement to zero at the bottom, and allow vertical movement in z-direction along the sides. As shown in the make_grid() function, the former corresponds to boundary indicator 6, the latter to 8.
  • If the domain is a half sphere, then we impose zero displacement along the curved part of the boundary, associated with boundary indicator zero.

PlasticityContactProblem::assemble_newton_system

Given the complexity of the problem, it may come as a bit of a surprise that assembling the linear system we have to solve in each Newton iteration is actually fairly straightforward. The following function builds the Newton right hand side and Newton matrix. It looks fairly innocent because the heavy lifting happens in the call to ConstitutiveLaw::get_linearized_stress_strain_tensors() and in particular in AffineConstraints<double>::distribute_local_to_global(), using the constraints we have previously computed.

For assembling the local right hand side contributions, we need to access the prior linearized stress value in this quadrature point. To get it, we use the user pointer of this cell that points into the global array to the quadrature point data corresponding to the first quadrature point of the present cell, and then add an offset corresponding to the index of the quadrature point we presently consider:

  const PointHistory<dim> *local_quadrature_points_history
  = reinterpret_cast<PointHistory<dim>*>(cell->user_pointer());
  Assert (local_quadrature_points_history >=
  &quadrature_point_history.front(),
  ExcInternalError());
  Assert (local_quadrature_points_history <
  &quadrature_point_history.back(),
  ExcInternalError());
 

In addition, we need the values of the external body forces at the quadrature points on this cell:

  body_force.vector_value_list(fe_values.get_quadrature_points(),
  body_force_values);
 
  for (unsigned int q_point = 0; q_point < n_q_points; ++q_point)
  {
  SymmetricTensor<2, dim> tmp_strain_tensor_qpoint;
  tmp_strain_tensor_qpoint = local_quadrature_points_history[q_point].old_strain
  + incremental_strain_tensor[q_point];
 
  SymmetricTensor<4, dim> stress_strain_tensor_linearized;
  SymmetricTensor<4, dim> stress_strain_tensor;

  {
  rhs_values_body_force[i] = body_force_values[q_point][i];
  }
 
  for (unsigned int i = 0; i < dofs_per_cell; ++i)
  {

Having computed the stress-strain tensor and its linearization, we can now put together the parts of the matrix and right hand side. In both, we need the linearized stress-strain tensor times the symmetric gradient of \(\varphi_i\), i.e. the term \(I_\Pi\varepsilon(\varphi_i)\), so we introduce an abbreviation of this term. Recall that the matrix corresponds to the bilinear form \(A_{ij}=(I_\Pi\varepsilon(\varphi_i),\varepsilon(\varphi_j))\) in the notation of the accompanying publication, whereas the right hand side is \(F_i=([I_\Pi-P_\Pi C]\varepsilon(\varphi_i),\varepsilon(\mathbf u))\) where \(u\) is the current linearization points (typically the last solution). This might suggest that the right hand side will be zero if the material is completely elastic (where \(I_\Pi=P_\Pi\)) but this ignores the fact that the right hand side will also contain contributions from non-homogeneous constraints due to the contact.

The code block that follows this adds contributions that are due to boundary forces, should there be any.

PlasticityContactProblem::compute_nonlinear_residual

The following function computes the nonlinear residual of the equation given the current solution (or any other linearization point). This is needed in the linear search algorithm where we need to try various linear combinations of previous and current (trial) solution to compute the (real, globalized) solution of the current Newton step.

That said, in a slight abuse of the name of the function, it actually does significantly more. For example, it also computes the vector that corresponds to the Newton residual but without eliminating constrained degrees of freedom. We need this vector to compute contact forces and, ultimately, to compute the next active set. Likewise, by keeping track of how many quadrature points we encounter on each cell that show plastic yielding, we also compute the fraction_of_plastic_q_points_per_cell vector that we can later output to visualize the plastic zone. In both of these cases, the results are not necessary as part of the line search, and so we may be wasting a small amount of time computing them. At the same time, this information appears as a natural by-product of what we need to do here anyway, and we want to collect it once at the end of each Newton step, so we may as well do it here.

The actual implementation of this function should be rather obvious:

PlasticityContactProblem::solve_newton_system

The last piece before we can discuss the actual Newton iteration on a single mesh is the solver for the linear systems. There are a couple of complications that slightly obscure the code, but mostly it is just setup then solve. Among the complications are:

  • For the hanging nodes we have to apply the AffineConstraints<double>::set_zero function to newton_rhs. This is necessary if a hanging node with solution value \(x_0\) has one neighbor with value \(x_1\) which is in contact with the obstacle and one neighbor \(x_2\) which is not in contact. Because the update for the former will be prescribed, the hanging node constraint will have an inhomogeneity and will look like \(x_0 = x_1/2 + \text{gap}/2\). So the corresponding entries in the ride-hang-side are non-zero with a meaningless value. These values we have to to set to zero.
  • Like in step-40, we need to shuffle between vectors that do and do do not have ghost elements when solving or using the solution.

The rest of the function is similar to step-40 and step-41 except that we use a BiCGStab solver instead of CG. This is due to the fact that for very small hardening parameters \(\gamma\), the linear system becomes almost semidefinite though still symmetric. BiCGStab appears to have an easier time with such linear systems.

PlasticityContactProblem::solve_newton

This is, finally, the function that implements the damped Newton method on the current mesh. There are two nested loops: the outer loop for the Newton iteration and the inner loop for the line search which will be used only if necessary. To obtain a good and reasonable starting value we solve an elastic problem in very first Newton step on each mesh (or only on the first mesh if we transfer solutions between meshes). We do so by setting the yield stress to an unreasonably large value in these iterations and then setting it back to the correct value in subsequent iterations.

Other than this, the top part of this function should be reasonably obvious:

  template <int dim>

  ElastoPlasticProblem<dim>::solve_newton ()

  tmp_solution = solution;

  assemble_newton_system(tmp_solution,
  incremental_displacement);
 
  pcout << " Solving system... " << std::endl;
  solve_newton_system();
 

It gets a bit more hairy after we have computed the trial solution \(\tilde{\mathbf u}\) of the current Newton step. We handle a highly nonlinear problem so we have to damp Newton's method using a line search. To understand how we do this, recall that in our formulation, we compute a trial solution in each Newton step and not the update between old and new solution. Since the solution set is a convex set, we will use a line search that tries linear combinations of the previous and the trial solution to guarantee that the damped solution is in our solution set again. At most we apply 5 damping steps.

There are exceptions to when we use a line search. First, if this is the first Newton step on any mesh, then we don't have any point to compare the residual to, so we always accept a full step. Likewise, if this is the second Newton step on the first mesh (or the second on any mesh if we don't transfer solutions from mesh to mesh), then we have computed the first of these steps using just an elastic model (see how we set the yield stress sigma to an unreasonably large value above). In this case, the first Newton solution was a purely elastic one, the second one a plastic one, and any linear combination would not necessarily be expected to lie in the feasible set – so we just accept the solution we just got.

In either of these two cases, we bypass the line search and just update residual and other vectors as necessary.

  if ((newton_step==1)
  ||
  (transfer_solution && newton_step == 2 && current_refinement_cycle == 0)
  ||
  (!transfer_solution && newton_step == 2))
  {
  tmp_solution = solution;
  tmp_solution += incremental_displacement;
  compute_nonlinear_residual(tmp_solution);
  old_solution = incremental_displacement;
 
  residual = newton_rhs_residual;
 
  residual.compress(VectorOperation::insert);
 
  residual_norm = residual.l2_norm();
 
  pcout << " Accepting Newton solution with residual: "
  << residual_norm << std::endl;
  }
  else
  {
  for (unsigned int i = 0; i < 5; ++i)
  {
  distributed_solution = incremental_displacement;
 
  const double alpha = std::pow(0.5, static_cast<double>(i));
  tmp_vector = old_solution;
  tmp_vector.sadd(1 - alpha, alpha, distributed_solution);
 
  TimerOutput::Scope t(computing_timer, "Residual and lambda");
 
  locally_relevant_tmp_vector = tmp_vector;
  tmp_solution = solution;
  tmp_solution += locally_relevant_tmp_vector;
  compute_nonlinear_residual(tmp_solution);
  residual = newton_rhs_residual;
 
  residual.compress(VectorOperation::insert);
 
  residual_norm = residual.l2_norm();
 
  pcout << " Residual of the system: "
  << residual_norm << std::endl
  << " with a damping parameter alpha = " << alpha

  break;
  }
 
  incremental_displacement = tmp_vector;
  old_solution = incremental_displacement;
  }
 
  disp_norm = incremental_displacement.l2_norm();
 
 

The final step is to check for convergence. If the residual is less than a threshold of \(10^{-10}\), then we terminate the iteration on the current mesh: if (residual_norm < 1e-10)

  if (residual_norm < 1e-7)
  break;

PlasticityContactProblem::refine_grid

If you've made it this far into the deal.II tutorial, the following function refining the mesh should not pose any challenges to you any more. It refines the mesh, either globally or using the Kelly error estimator, and if so asked also transfers the solution from the previous to the next mesh. In the latter case, we also need to compute the active set and other quantities again, for which we need the information computed by compute_nonlinear_residual().

ElastoPlasticProblem::setup_quadrature_point_history

At the beginning of our computations, we needed to set up initial values of the history variables, such as the existing stresses in the material, that we store in each quadrature point. As mentioned above, we use the user_pointer for this that is available in each cell.

To put this into larger perspective, we note that if we had previously available stresses in our model (which we assume do not exist for the purpose of this program), then we would need to interpolate the field of preexisting stresses to the quadrature points. Likewise, if we were to simulate elasto-plastic materials with hardening/softening, then we would have to store additional history variables like the present yield stress of the accumulated plastic strains in each quadrature points. Pre-existing hardening or weakening would then be implemented by interpolating these variables in the present function as well.

  template <int dim>
  void ElastoPlasticProblem<dim>::setup_quadrature_point_history ()
  {

What we need to do here is to first count how many quadrature points are within the responsibility of this processor. This, of course, equals the number of cells that belong to this processor times the number of quadrature points our quadrature formula has on each cell.

For good measure, we also set all user pointers of all cells, whether ours of not, to the null pointer. This way, if we ever access the user pointer of a cell which we should not have accessed, a segmentation fault will let us know that this should not have happened:

  unsigned int our_cells = 0;
  cell != triangulation.end(); ++cell)
  if (cell->is_locally_owned())
  ++our_cells;
 
 
void clear_user_data()

Next, allocate as many quadrature objects as we need. Since the resize function does not actually shrink the amount of allocated memory if the requested new size is smaller than the old size, we resort to a trick to first free all memory, and then reallocate it: we declare an empty vector as a temporary variable and then swap the contents of the old vector and this temporary variable. This makes sure that the quadrature_point_history is now really empty, and we can let the temporary variable that now holds the previous contents of the vector go out of scope and be destroyed. In the next step. we can then re-allocate as many elements as we need, with the vector default-initializing the PointHistory objects, which includes setting the stress variables to zero.

  {
  std::vector<PointHistory<dim> > tmp;
  tmp.swap (quadrature_point_history);
  }
  quadrature_point_history.resize (our_cells *
  quadrature_formula.size());
 

Finally loop over all cells again and set the user pointers from the cells that belong to the present processor to point to the first quadrature point objects corresponding to this cell in the vector of such objects:

  unsigned int history_index = 0;
  cell != triangulation.end(); ++cell)
  if (cell->is_locally_owned())
  {
  cell->set_user_pointer (&quadrature_point_history[history_index]);
  history_index += quadrature_formula.size();
  }
 

At the end, for good measure make sure that our count of elements was correct and that we have both used up all objects we allocated previously, and not point to any objects beyond the end of the vector. Such defensive programming strategies are always good checks to avoid accidental errors and to guard against future changes to this function that forget to update all uses of a variable at the same time. Recall that constructs using the Assert macro are optimized away in optimized mode, so do not affect the run time of optimized runs:

  Assert (history_index == quadrature_point_history.size(),
  ExcInternalError());
  }
 

ElastoPlasticProblem::update_quadrature_point_history

At the end of each time step, we should have computed an incremental displacement update so that the material in its new configuration accommodates for the difference between the external body and boundary forces applied during this time step minus the forces exerted through preexisting internal stresses. In order to have the preexisting stresses available at the next time step, we therefore have to update the preexisting stresses with the stresses due to the incremental displacement computed during the present time step. Ideally, the resulting sum of internal stresses would exactly counter all external forces. Indeed, a simple experiment can make sure that this is so: if we choose boundary conditions and body forces to be time independent, then the forcing terms (the sum of external forces and internal stresses) should be exactly zero. If you make this experiment, you will realize from the output of the norm of the right hand side in each time step that this is almost the case: it is not exactly zero, since in the first time step the incremental displacement and stress updates were computed relative to the undeformed mesh, which was then deformed. In the second time step, we again compute displacement and stress updates, but this time in the deformed mesh – there, the resulting updates are very small but not quite zero. This can be iterated, and in each such iteration the residual, i.e. the norm of the right hand side vector, is reduced; if one makes this little experiment, one realizes that the norm of this residual decays exponentially with the number of iterations, and after an initial very rapid decline is reduced by roughly a factor of about 3.5 in each iteration (for one testcase I looked at, other testcases, and other numbers of unknowns change the factor, but not the exponential decay).

In a sense, this can then be considered as a quasi-timestepping scheme to resolve the nonlinear problem of solving large-deformation elasticity on a mesh that is moved along in a Lagrangian manner.

Another complication is that the existing (old) stresses are defined on the old mesh, which we will move around after updating the stresses. If this mesh update involves rotations of the cell, then we need to also rotate the updated stress, since it was computed relative to the coordinate system of the old cell.

Thus, what we need is the following: on each cell which the present processor owns, we need to extract the old stress from the data stored with each quadrature point, compute the stress update, add the two together, and then rotate the result together with the incremental rotation computed from the incremental displacement at the present quadrature point. We will detail these steps below:

  template <int dim>
  void ElastoPlasticProblem<dim>::
  update_quadrature_point_history ()
  {

First, set up an FEValues object by which we will evaluate the displacements and the gradients thereof at the quadrature points, together with a vector that will hold this information:

  FEValues<dim> fe_values (fe, quadrature_formula,
 
  const unsigned int n_q_points = quadrature_formula.size();
 
  std::vector<SymmetricTensor<2, dim> > incremental_strain_tensor(n_q_points);
  SymmetricTensor<4, dim> stress_strain_tensor;
 
 

Then loop over all cells and do the job in the cells that belong to our subdomain:

  cell = dof_handler.begin_active(),
  endc = dof_handler.end();
 
  const FEValuesExtractors::Vector displacement(0);
 
  for (; cell != endc; ++cell)
  if (cell->is_locally_owned())
  {

Next, get a pointer to the quadrature point history data local to the present cell, and, as a defensive measure, make sure that this pointer is within the bounds of the global array:

  PointHistory<dim> *local_quadrature_points_history
  = reinterpret_cast<PointHistory<dim> *>(cell->user_pointer());
  Assert (local_quadrature_points_history >=
  &quadrature_point_history.front(),
  ExcInternalError());
  Assert (local_quadrature_points_history <
  &quadrature_point_history.back(),
  ExcInternalError());
 

Then initialize the FEValues object on the present cell, and extract the strains of the displacement at the quadrature points

  fe_values.reinit (cell);
  fe_values[displacement].get_function_symmetric_gradients(incremental_displacement,
  incremental_strain_tensor);
 

Then loop over the quadrature points of this cell:

  for (unsigned int q=0; q<quadrature_formula.size(); ++q)
  {
  local_quadrature_points_history[q].old_strain +=
  incremental_strain_tensor[q];
 
  constitutive_law.get_stress_strain_tensor(local_quadrature_points_history[q].old_strain,
  stress_strain_tensor);
 

The result of these operations is then written back into the original place:

  local_quadrature_points_history[q].old_stress
  = stress_strain_tensor * local_quadrature_points_history[q].old_strain;
 
  local_quadrature_points_history[q].point
  = fe_values.get_quadrature_points ()[q];
  }
  }
  }
 
 

PlasticityContactProblem::move_mesh

The remaining three functions before we get to run() have to do with generating output. The following one is an attempt at showing the deformed body in its deformed configuration. To this end, this function takes a displacement vector field and moves every vertex of the (local part) of the mesh by the previously computed displacement. We will call this function with the current displacement field before we generate graphical output, and we will call it again after generating graphical output with the negative displacement field to undo the changes to the mesh so made.

The function itself is pretty straightforward. All we have to do is keep track which vertices we have already touched, as we encounter the same vertices multiple times as we loop over cells.

  void
  ElastoPlasticProblem<dim>::
  move_mesh (const TrilinosWrappers::MPI::Vector &displacement) const
  {
  std::vector<bool> vertex_touched(triangulation.n_vertices(), false);
 
  dof_handler.begin_active();
  cell != dof_handler.end(); ++cell)
  if (cell->is_locally_owned())
  for (unsigned int v = 0; v < GeometryInfo<dim>::vertices_per_cell; ++v)
  if (vertex_touched[cell->vertex_index(v)] == false)
  {
  vertex_touched[cell->vertex_index(v)] = true;
 
  Point<dim> vertex_displacement;
  for (unsigned int d = 0; d < dim; ++d)
  vertex_displacement[d] = displacement(cell->vertex_dof_index(v, d));
 
  cell->vertex(v) += vertex_displacement;
  }
  }
 
 
 

PlasticityContactProblem::output_results

Next is the function we use to actually generate graphical output. The function is a bit tedious, but not actually particularly complicated. It moves the mesh at the top (and moves it back at the end), then computes the contact forces along the contact surface. We can do so (as shown in the accompanying paper) by taking the untreated residual vector and identifying which degrees of freedom correspond to those with contact by asking whether they have an inhomogeneous constraints associated with them. As always, we need to be mindful that we can only write into completely distributed vectors (i.e., vectors without ghost elements) but that when we want to generate output, we need vectors that do indeed have ghost entries for all locally relevant degrees of freedom.

In the remainder of the function, we generate one VTU file on every processor, indexed by the subdomain id of this processor. On the first processor, we then also create a .pvtu file that indexes all of the VTU files so that the entire set of output files can be read at once. These .pvtu are used by Paraview to describe an entire parallel computation's output files. We then do the same again for the competitor of Paraview, the Visit visualization program, by creating a matching .visit file.

PlasticityContactProblem::run

As in all other tutorial programs, the run() function contains the overall logic. There is not very much to it here: in essence, it performs the loops over all mesh refinement cycles, and within each, hands things over to the Newton solver in solve_newton() on the current mesh and calls the function that creates graphical output for the so-computed solution. It then outputs some statistics concerning both run times and memory consumption that has been collected over the course of computations on this mesh.
