Note
The header of the parameters in the csv file should be as follows:
a: diameter of the inclusion along direction-1 in actual units (mm/cm etc.).
b: diameter of the inclusion along direction-2 in actual units (mm/cm etc.).
c: diameter of the inclusion along direction-3 in actual units (mm/cm etc.).
n_cuts: Number of faces/cuts for the polyhedron shaped aggregates.
concave: Yes/No. Provision for concave depressions on the aggregates.
n_concave: Number of concave depressions on each aggregate surface in actual units (mm/cm etc.).
depth: A parameter which determines depth of the concave depression on the aggregate surface. Values should be between 0 to 1 (0 lowest, 1 highest).
width: A parameter which determines width of the concave depression on the aggregate surface.
coat: Yes/No. Provision for the coating on the aggregate surface.
t_coat: Thickness of the coating on the aggregate surface in actual units (mm/cm etc.).
space: Yes/No. Provision for the spacing on the aggregate surface. Spacing is like a coat on top of the aggregate which provides minimum gap between each inclusion in the mesostructure.
t_space: Thickness of the spacing on the aggregate surface in actual units (mm/cm etc.).
vf_max: Maximum volume fraction of each sized aggregates (value between 0 to 1).
- Parameters
conf_header – If not csv, then a header with parameter names as given above and corresponding array of values have to be loaded.
conf_values – In not csv, then values corresponding to the header have to be loaded.
conf_dict – If not csv and conf_header & conf_values, inputs can be also given through a dictionary.
- class configuration.InclusionFamily(average_shape=False, Id=None, inclusion_list=[], vf_max=1, a=10, b=0, c=0, n_cuts=10, concave=False, n_concave=0, depth=0, width=0, coat=False, t_coat=0, space=False, t_space=0, x=0, y=0, z=0, kwargs=None)[source]
Bases:
objectThis class is for family of inclusions
- Parameters
average_shape (array of size (3),float) – Aspect ration of the inclusion along all three axes (value between 0-1).
Id (int, default: None) – Id of the inclusion family.
inclusion_list (array/list (1D)) – Gives list of inclusions belonging to the current family.
vf_max (float, value between 0 to 1, default:1.0) – Maximum volume fraction of the inclusion family.
a (float, default:10) – Diameter of the inclusion along direction-1 in actual units (mm/cm).
b (float, default:b=a* average_shape[1]) – Diameter of the inclusion along direction-2 in actual units (mm/cm).
c (float, default:c=a* average_shape[2]) – Diameter of the inclusion along direction-3 in actual units (mm/cm).
n_cuts (int, default:10) – Number of faces of the irregular polyhedron.
concave (bool, True/False, default:False) – Boolean for concave depression on inclusion surface.
n_concave (int, default:0) – Number of concave depressions on the inclusion surface.
depth (float, value between 0 to 1, default:0) – Parameter which determines depth of the concave depression from the inclusion surface.
width (float, default:0) – Parameter which determines width of the concave depression on the inclusion surface.
coat (bool, True/False, default:False) – Boolean for coat on inclusion.
t_coat (float, default:0) – Thickness of the coating in actual units (mm/cm).
space (bool, True/False, default:False) – Boolean for space which determines gap between inclusions in micro/mesostructure.
t_space (flaot, default:0) – Thickness of the spacing in actual units (mm/cm). Voxel value for the coat.
kwargs (Other parameters, default:None) –
