MATERIAL SPECIMEN GENERATOR — 4ENF MODE II FRACTURE COUPON

Generates an LS-DYNA 4ENF (4-point End-Notched Flexure) Mode II fracture coupon for adhesive Mode II calibration. The two material parameters SHRMAX and GCSHR are exposed as inputs so calibration sweeps can vary them without re-shipping the keyword deck. The rest of the deck is fixed.

When to use

Classification: data.

Tagged: adhesive, calibration, fracture, keyword, ls-dyna, mat_169, mat_arup_adhesive, mode_ii.

Inputs

Label ID Type Default Required Description
Element Formulation elform scalar 1   Solid element formulation for the primary adherend section (*SECTION_SOLID secid=1). Exposed as IELFORM in *PARAMETER (referenced as &ELFORM). Default 1 (constant-stress). The cohesive adhesive section is left unchanged.
Duration duration scalar 100.0   Termination time (*CONTROL_TERMINATION endtim). Exposed as RETERM in *PARAMETER (referenced as &ETERM).
Force Multiplier force_multiplier scalar 1.0   Scale factor for force output / load curve referencing (exposed as RFMULT in *PARAMETER, referenceable as &FMULT). Default 1.0.
Material Data (Full *MAT Card Override) material_data textarea   Optional. When set, the entire *MAT_ARUP_ADHESIVE block is replaced verbatim with this text. Use to swap in a custom MAT card without editing the template.
Additional Keywords additional_keywords textarea   Optional free-text LS-DYNA keywords appended after the deck and before *END.
Title title scalar Sample 4ENF Mode II coupon   Text that appears in the *TITLE block at the top of the generated keyword deck.

Outputs

Label ID Type Description
material_specimen_generator_4enf_output_1 material_specimen_generator_4enf_output_1 text Generated LS-DYNA keyword text for a 4ENF Mode II fracture coupon with the supplied shear-strength + Mode II fracture-energy parameters baked into the *PARAMETER block.
