ISE 7510 - HW 1 – Numerical problems
Name - Chaitanya Karwa
1 21-a - Variation in values of n.
Remarks –
The plot shows that the maximum uniform strain increases with the value of n. This is
𝑛
expected as 𝑒𝑢 ∝ . Hence, as n increases 𝑒𝑢 increases too.
1−𝑚
2 21-b – Variation in values of m
Remarks –
The plot shows that m has a significant effect on the post uniform elongation of the
specimen. As m increases the post uniform elongation increases too.
3 21-c – Variation in strain rates
Remarks –
The plot shows that the Eng. Stress increases for higher strain rates or velocity. This is in
agreement with observations in experiments (jump test)
4 21 d – Constant true strain rate
Remarks –
The graphs exactly coincide with each other as the ‘k’ is scaled according to the conditions in
the question
5 21 e
Remarks –
The plot shows that strain decreases as the taper in the specimen increases.
6 25 a – Variation in time steps for implicit
Remarks –
The plot shows that the Stress-strain curve converges at around 600 time steps. The error
observed in the data is also very small for 600 time steps.
7 25 b – Implicit and explicit schemes
Remarks –
The plot shows that there is no difference in the explicit and implicit shceme for large
enough time steps (2000)
8 25 c – Variation in 𝛽 error plot
Remarks –
The percentage error plot is shown above. We can observe that 𝛽 = 5 gives the best results
for a specific number of time steps. As the number of time steps increase the trend between
the values of B might change as observed in the graph above. Concluding, neither fully
implicit nor fully implicit is the most efficient solution
