Public Member Functions
	GmpCoupledTMFemPhysics (const char *pluginType, GmSimulationData *simulation, QString id, QString description, const GmLogCategory &logger)
	Constructor. Will be called by the plugin loading code.
virtual	~GmpCoupledTMFemPhysics ()
	Destructor.
virtual const char *	pluginName () const
virtual const char *	pluginType () const
virtual const QVariantMap *	physicsMetaDataMap ()
	Returns a reference for the single thermo-mechanical physics attribute map, built when the function is called for the first time.
virtual FemResultType	fillElementData (const GmElement *e, GmpFemMatrixSet &elemMatrices, GmpFemVectorSet &elemVectors)
virtual bool	calcDerivedResults (bool nonLinearSolver)
	Calc temperature stress component on nodes and/or Gauss points, ADDING the calculated value to the current result.
virtual bool	checkPhysicsDependencies (const QVector< GmpFemPhysics * > &physicsList, int index)
	The coupled TM physics was created to work TOGETHER with a mechanic and a temperature physics. It can't operate alone, and this function checks that both are present AND appear before the coupling physics in the physics list. This is required since the stress recovery function adds its calculated result to the one seted by the mechanical physics.
virtual bool	checkLoadedData ()
	The current physics implementation requires the material to be isotropic. It also requires it to be elastic for the plane strain case (rquires the poisson ratio).

Member Function Documentation

calcElementDerivedResultAtPoints()

void GmpCoupledTMFemPhysics::calcElementDerivedResultAtPoints ( const GmElement * e, int resultId, const GmMatrix & evalPoints, bool evalAtIp, GmMatrix & result )

protectedvirtual

The virtual function used by calcDerivedResults() to effectivelly calculate thermal stresses at the given evaluation points.

See the base class for a parameter description.

The thermal stress is calculated as: st = - E * (alpha * (T - _Tr) * [1 1 1 0]t) for a plane stress formulation, st = - E * ((1+nu) * alpha * (T - _Tr) * [1 1 1 0]t) for a plane strain formulation.
