SSNP123 - Plate notched in elastoplasticity (test
elements QUAD4 under integrated)




Summary:

This test 2D in plane deformations quasi-static makes it possible to illustrate the questions relating to the incompressibility
during the use of an elastoplastic law of behavior: when the rate of plasticity becomes important, of
nonphysical oscillations of stresses can appear. It is shown that the use of elements QUAD4
under integrated can allow to mitigate this problem.

It is about a notched rectangular plate made up of an elastoplastic material with isotropic work hardening
who is subjected to a traction at his ends. One is interested in the elastoplastic solution in load.

Modeling A corresponds to the use of elements QUAD4 under integrated stabilized by the method
“assumed strain”.

Modeling B corresponds to the use of the incompressible elements QUAD8 which make it possible to obtain one
reference solution.

Summary of the results
The result obtained using elements QUAD4 under integrated stabilized by the method assumed
strain is very close to that provided by the incompressible quadratic elements, as it can
to note on the graph below. This graph gathers the results for various elements:
QUAS4
elements QUAD4 under integrated
QUAD4
conventional elements QUAD4
QUAD8
conventional elements QUAD8
QUAS8
quasi incompressible elements QUAD8
One thus notes the good quality of the solution given by elements QUAD4 under integrated and
disappearance of the oscillations of stresses given by conventional elements QUAD4.
