Computational model specification

The computational model follows from the material properties described in the name.i2 file and from the input parameters in the name.iP file:

IP KREST NLC NCYC KMOD 2*0 KCNT 3*0 $L_1$ $L_2$ $\dots$ $L_\mathtt{NLC}$ RP 10*0 $t_1$ $t_2$ $\dots$ $t_\mathtt{NLC}$

Elastoplasticity

The plasticity model is selected using the KMOD key:
$=0$ … elasticity (default)
$=1$ … von Mises model
$=2$ … generalized associated model
$=3$ … generalized non-associated model
$=4$ … Feigenbaum-Dafalias model

The material properties specified in the name.i2 file must correspond to the selected model.

Contact

It is activated by the KCNT key when $\mathtt{KCNT}=1$.

In the name.i2 file, pairs of contact surfaces must be specified as SV batches with $\mathtt{KQT}=10$ and $11$, $12$ and $13$, etc.

In the name.iN file, the penalty value $\mathtt{PENAL}$ must be set.
