COMPARISONS:

Case 1-2 : Case 1 is run as it is and case 2 we made changes in failure collector ifail_sh=1, dadv=1, Ixfem=1.

Number of cycles taken in case 1 is more as compared to case 2, we can see a huge energy error difference between them and time taken in case 1 is less than case 2.

Case 2-3: We Deleted Fail/Johnson card in case 3.

Number of cycles taken in case 3 is more as compared to case 2, here also we can see that the huge difference between energy error and time taken in case 3 is less than case 2.

Case 3-4: Deleting the value of esp_p_max_ in material card in case 4. Esp_p_max - Plastic strain beyond this will cause element deletion

Number of cycles taken in case 3 is more than case 3, energy error is 0.8 % and 3.0 % respectively, time taken in case 4 is less than case 3.

Case 4-5: Changing material model to law1 (M1_ELAST) in case 5, Law 1 elastic (Isotropic elasticity) - Isotropic means that a material have the same material properties in all 3 direction.

Number of cycles taken in case 5 is little more than case 4, energy error is negative and positive respectively and time taken in cse 4 is less than case 5.

Case 5-6: Changing material model to law36 (M36_PLAST_TAB) in case 6, Law 36 material law helps in modeling isotropic elasto plastic material using user defined function for the work hardening portion of the stress strain curve for different strain rates.

Number of cycles taken in case 5 is more than case 6, energy error is negative in both the cases and simulation time is taken less in case 5.

Case 6-7: Changing material model to law27 (M27_PLAST_BRIT) in case 7, Law 27 has isotropic elasto-plastic material law with orthotropic brittle failure model. Orthotropic materials differ along three manually orthogonal axes. Here material damage and failure happens only in tensions.

Number of cycles taken in case 6 is more than case 7, energy error is negative and positive respectively and simulation time taken in case 6 is more than case 7.
