* in Fixed Point Iteration: update dependent states after state preguess was missing; on the other hand, the first call to constitutive_microstructure was obsolete
* now remembering stiffness similar to how we do it for Lp etc.; avoids undefined stiffness values for nonconverged stiffness calculation
* non-local stuff:
* changed non-local kinetics (Gilman2002)
* enforce zero shearrate for overall carrrier density below relevant density
* enforce zero density for those states that become negative and were below relevant density before
* dislocation velocity is not limited by V^(1/3) / dt anymore
2) local stiffness calculation is now standard for non-local grains
3) stressLoopDistribution discriminates between (a) central solution and (b) stiffness perturbation
4) debugger is switched on as standard... (but verboseDebugger not!)
rather perturb all components at once (and optionally decrease the frequency of the Jacobian update with the iJaco parameter) than perturbing only a single component per cycle
- grainrotation calculation now is done with symmetryID 0, i.e. without symmetry reduction since we want the absolute misorientation.
- While math has everything in radians, post results eulerangles and axisangle are given in degrees.
And: grain rotation seems OK after the previous changes in math module.
beware that crystallite output "orientation" now by default returns the orientation as quaternion. if you want euler angles instead, you have to add "eulerangles" as a crystallite output in your material.config file (see material.config template).
for input of orientations in the texture block of the material.config you still have to specify the rotation in terms of euler angles, quaternions are not yet supported for input.
- nonlocal stiffness calculation: we perturb all material points at the same time, so instead of N^2 loops we just need N
- set "forceLocalStiffnessCalculation" to false as standard
--> new "crystallite" part in config file
--> new "crystallite" option for microstructures
--> new output file "...job.outputCrystallite" to be used in conjunction with marc_addUserOutput for meaningful naming of User Defined Vars.
- reworked contribution of immobile dislocation density for rate equations
- flux is now calculated on the basis of interpolated velocities and densities at the interface; both incoming and outgoing fluxes are considered, so every material point only changes his own dotState
- dislocation velocity is now globally defined and calculated by subroutine constitutive_nonlocal_kinetics; the subroutine is called inside _LpAndItsTangent as well as _microstructure; therefore, microstructure now needs Tstar_v as additional input; in the future one should perhaps create a subroutine constitutive_kinetics that calls constitutive_nonlocal_kinetics separately, to clearly distinguish between microstructural and kinetic variables
- better use flux density vector as output variable instead of scalar flux values for each interface
- added output variables internal and external resolved stress
crystallite:
- added flag to force local stiffness calculation in case of nonlocal model
- misorientation angle is explicitly set to zero when no neighbor can be found
debug:
- added flag "selectiveDebugger" that is used when debugging statements should only affect a specific element, ip and grain; these are specified with the new variables debug_e, debug_i and debug_g
- debugger can now be used in its original sense
The calculation of the misorientation is now done once in crystallite init and at the end of every FE increment. This saves a lot of time compared to doing it in dotState for every crystallite subinc.
