hmm. I remember calculating internal work, and in fact I remember
that we stumbled upon this problem.
(I hope that your UTF-8 works good, because I'm using UTF below)
What is the work of a typical spring?
W=∫F*dx
F=k*x
W=∫k*x*dx = k*x²/2
, see that squared distance factor?
But we need to integrate that in a little different manner, because
we are summing from one iteration to another. Let us make a plot of
force versus displacement and calculate the surface area below the
force. To make it simple we are integrating using the Trapezoidal Rule:
Wᵢ = (Fᵢ+Fᵢ₋₁)*Δxᵢ⁄2
, where ᵢ is the iteration, Fᵢ₋₁ is previous force, Fᵢ is
current force, Δxᵢ=xᵢ-xᵢ₋₁ is the displacement that happened from
iteration ᵢ₋₁ to ᵢ. Now if we perform summation over all
iterations, like that:
W += Wᵢ
we would get:
i="now"
W = ∑ (Fᵢ+Fᵢ₋₁)*(xᵢ-xᵢ₋₁)⁄2
i=1
In the end we were using that formula for all DOFs, to get a total
work, as a sum of normal, shearing and rotational displacements over
respective forces (and moment).
W=Wn+Ws+Wr
Wn =∑ (Fnᵢ+Fnᵢ₋₁)*(xᵢ-xᵢ₋₁)⁄2
Ws =∑ (Fsᵢ+Fsᵢ₋₁)*(sᵢ-sᵢ₋₁)⁄2
Wr =∑ (Mᵢ+Mᵢ₋₁)*quaternion_to_Euler_angle(qᵢ*(qᵢ₋₁)⁻¹).angle_in_radians⁄2
I don't have the implementation at hand right now, I'll find it
tomorrow. I might have made some mistake above, but you should get
the general idea.
If I find a mistake I'll let you know :)
best regards
