fracture_energy

gripyth.solving.integration.fracture_energy

Python wrapper for fracture_energy() Fortran routine.

FUNCTION	DESCRIPTION
fracture_energy	Calculates the fracture energy.

fracture_energy

fracture_energy(
    mesh: Mesh,
    t: float,
    quadrature: Quadrature,
    material: Material,
    elasticity_tensor: NDArray[float64],
    p_field: NDArray[float64],
    c_w: float,
    order: int,
) -> float

Calculates the fracture energy.

This function dispatches to a Fortran routine for performance reasons. Python data structures not supported by Fortran, such as classes, are unpacked into simpler types, which is why the underlying Fortran routine has a different signature. Array indices are converted from 0-based to 1-based.
