Cohesive elements using a uniaxial stress state

Stress and other tensors (including strain tensors) are available for cohesive elements with uniaxial stress response. Both the stress tensor and the strain tensor contain true values. For the constitutive calculations using a uniaxial stress response, only the direct through-thickness stress is assumed to be nonzero. All the other stress components (i.e., the membrane and transverse shear stresses) are assumed to be zero (see “Modeling of gaskets and/or small adhesive patches” in “Defining the constitutive response of cohesive elements using a continuum approach,” Section 32.5.5, for details). All tensors have the same number of components. For example, the stress components are as follows:

S22

Direct through-thickness stress.

Cohesive elements using a traction-separation response

Stress and other tensors (including strain tensors) are available for elements with traction-separation response. Both the stress tensor and the strain tensor contain nominal values. The output variables E, LE, and NE all contain the nominal strain when the response of cohesive elements is defined in terms of traction versus separation. All tensors have the same number of components. For example, the stress components are as follows:

S22

Direct through-thickness stress.

S12

Transverse shear stress.

Element property definition

You can define the elements initial constitutive thickness. The default initial constitutive thickness of cohesive elements depends on the response of these elements. For continuum response, the default initial constitutive thickness is computed based on the nodal coordinates. For traction-separation response, the default initial constitutive thickness is assumed to be 1.0. For response based on a uniaxial stress state, there is no default; you must indicate your choice of the method for computing the initial constitutive thickness. See “Specifying the constitutive thickness” in “Defining the cohesive elements initial geometry,” Section 32.5.4, for details.

Abaqus computes the thickness direction automatically based on the midsurface of the element.

Element output

Stress, strain, and other tensor components available for output depend on whether the cohesive elements are used to model adhesive joints, gaskets, or delamination problems. You indicate the intended usage of the cohesive elements by choosing an appropriate response type when defining the section properties of these elements. The available response types are discussed in “Defining the constitutive response of cohesive elements using a continuum approach,” Section 32.5.5, and “Defining the constitutive response of cohesive elements using a traction-separation description,” Section 32.5.6.

Cohesive elements using a continuum response

Stress and other tensors (including strain tensors) are available for elements with continuum response. Both the stress tensor and the strain tensor contain true values. For the constitutive calculations using a continuum response, only the direct through-thickness and the transverse shear strains are assumed to be nonzero. All the other strain components (i.e., the membrane strains) are assumed to be zero (see “Modeling of an adhesive layer of finite thickness” in “Defining the constitutive response of cohesive elements using a continuum approach,” Section 32.5.5, for details). All tensors have the same number of components. For example, the stress components are as follows:

S11Direct membrane stress.
S22Direct membrane stress.
S33Direct through-thickness stress.
S12In-plane membrane shear stress.
S13Transverse shear stress.
S23Transverse shear stress.

Cohesive elements using a uniaxial stress state

Stress and other tensors (including strain tensors) are available for cohesive elements with uniaxial stress response. Both the stress tensor and the strain tensor contain true values. For the constitutive calculations using a uniaxial stress response, only the direct through-thickness stress is assumed to be nonzero. All the other stress components (i.e., the membrane and transverse shear stresses) are assumed to be zero (see “Modeling of gaskets and/or small adhesive patches” in “Defining the constitutive response of cohesive elements using a continuum approach,” Section 32.5.5, for details). All tensors have the same number of components. For example, the stress components are as follows:

S33 Direct through-thickness stress.

Cohesive elements using a traction-separation response

Stress and other tensors (including strain tensors) are available for elements with traction-separation response. Both the stress tensor and the strain tensor contain nominal values. The output variables E, LE, and NE all contain the nominal strain when the response of cohesive elements is defined in terms of traction versus separation. All tensors have the same number of components. For example, the stress components are as follows:

S33Direct through-thickness stress.
S13Transverse shear stress.
S23Transverse shear stress.
