class ansys.dpf.composites.failure_criteria.CuntzeCriterion(*, cfc=True, cft=True, cma=True, cmb=True, cmc=True, dim=2, wf_cfc=1.0, wf_cft=1.0, wf_cma=1.0, wf_cmb=1.0, wf_cmc=1.0, b21=0.2, b32=1.3805, fracture_plane_angle=53.0, mode_interaction_coeff=2.6)#

Defines the Cuntze criterion for uni-directional orthotropic reinforced materials.

Parameters:
  • cfc (bool, default: True) – Activates the failure evaluation regarding compression in fiber direction.

  • cft (bool, default: True) – Activates the failure evaluation regarding tension in fiber direction.

  • cma (bool, default: True) – Activates the failure evaluation of the matrix due to tension.

  • cmb (bool, default: True) – Activates the failure evaluation of the matrix due to compression.

  • cmc (bool, default: True) – Activates the failure evaluation of the matrix due to compression or shear.

  • dim (int, default: 2) – Whether the 2D or 3D formulation of the criterion is used.

  • wf_cfc (float, default: 1.0) – Weighting factor of fiber failure due to compression (cfc).

  • wf_cft (float, default: 1.0) – Weighting factor of fiber failure due to tension (cft).

  • wf_cma (float, default: 1.0) – Weighting factor of matrix failure due to tension (cma).

  • wf_cmb (float, default: 1.0) – Weighting factor of matrix failure due to compression (cmb).

  • wf_cmc (float, default: 1.0) – Weighting factor of matrix failure due to compression or shear (cmc).

  • b21 (float, default: 0.2) – In-plane shear friction coefficient. The default is 0.2.

  • b32 (float, default: 1.3805) – Out-of-plane shear friction coefficient. The default is 1.3805. The value depends on the fracture plane angle.

  • fracture_plane_angle (float, default: 53.0) – Fracture plane angle in degrees. The default is 53. The value must be greater than 45. The value depends on the out-of-plane shear friction coefficient.

  • mode_interaction_coeff (float, default: 2.6) – Mode interaction coefficient. The default is 2.6.
