Changelog
In this release the Material Property Library is significantly enriched with new constitutive relations and gets wide use in the processes.
Other significant changes are:
Features
Process’ changes
- Richards mechanics process now correctly computes porosity changes in presence of swelling. #2825
- HydroMechanics process has now the option to use mass lumping. #2826
- HydroMechanics process now uses permeability in tensor form with corresponding output. #2848
- Reactive transport process has a mesh tag for restricting the place where chemical reactions take place within a specified subdomain. #2851
Numerics
- Pass
x_dotto processes’ assemble functions. Used by rate-dependent material models. #2795 - triangular elements with 7 integration points (order 4). #2798
Input and output
- Output of surface fluxes (for 2D and 3D bulk domains) for balance computations is now available for LiquidFlow process. #2760
- Compute and output element-average porosity in RichardsMechanics process. #2803
- Output of fixed time when using IterationBasedTimeStepping is now available. #2831
Material models
- Enable orthotropy in MFront solid material model interface. #2774
- Enable shared medium definition for multiple materials. #2786
- Implement van Genuchten saturation and relative permeability models in MPL. #2788
- Convert processes to use MPL for the fluid and porous media models:
- Pass time increment dt to the material models. #2801
- Add initialValue(x, t) for material properties. #2804
- Implement mass balance porosity, used in RichardsMechanics. #2804, #2829
- Orthotropic permeability power law, used in RichardsMechanics. #2813
- Implement saturation dependent swelling, used in RichardsMechanics. #2819, #2832
- Bishop’s effective stress models; power law and saturation cutoff, used in RichardsMechanics. #2823
File I/O
Testing and documentation
- A new test verifies the correct conversion from PropertyType enum to string and back. #2770
New tools
- ExtractEntireSurface: The tool extracts either lines in case of a 2D bulk mesh as input or quads/triangles in case of a 3D bulk mesh as input. #2764
Infrastructure
- Added a Code of Conduct. #2834
CMake options changes
- Added version requirements file in json-format to have a single source used by CMake and the web site generator. #2783
Version info
- See versions.json
