Abstract
En 中文
The nonlocal integral method typically requires a very high computing cost to search neighborhood integration points for calculating the nonlocal variable, which limits its application in large-scale problems. This paper proposes an efficient nonlocal integral method based on the octree algorithm, in which the integration point information is stored in the tree data structure to accelerate the search task. Firstly, the fundamental principles and implementation details of using the octree algorithm to search neighborhood integration points are described in detail. Subsequently, a Mohr-Coulomb nonlocal damage plastic model is presented as the application object of the proposed method. The model is implemented further in the ABAQUS using the octree-based nonlocal method and the return mapping algorithm enhanced by a line search method. Finally, two typical boundary value problems are simulated to verify the effectiveness and to assess the computational efficiency of the proposed nonlocal method. For the given test environment, the octree algorithm can achieve up to 100 times speedup at the integration point level compared to the traversal algorithm, and the developed efficient nonlocal method can achieve up to 7.9 times speedup at the boundary value problem level compared to the original nonlocal method.
