Hashin's damage initiation criteria and energy-based damage evolution law are tested with a linearly elastic material.
This verification test consists of a set of one- and two-element models subjected to uniaxial tension or compression for various angles (off-axis angles) between the fiber direction and the direction in which the load is applied. The default maximum degradation (equal to 1.0) is used for first-order elements, and the value of the maximum degradation of 0.95 was specified for the second-order elements.
The degradation of the material stiffness starts when Hashin's initiation criterion is reached for at least one of the failure modes. The damage variables, for the damage modes for which the initiation criteria are satisfied, evolve according to an energy-based evolution law with linear softening. Once the damage variable reaches the maximum degradation specified, no further damage takes place.
The results for the off-axis angles equal to 0° (fiber tension and compression) and 90° (matrix tension and compression) were verified to agree with analytical results.
Figure 2.2.22–1 and Figure 2.2.22–2 show the unidirectional stress for tension and compression, respectively, at which the initiation criterion is satisfied as a function of the off-axis angle. In these figures the numerical predictions agree very well with the analytical results and also show good agreement with the experimental data reported in Jones (1999).

This category of problems tests the import capability from Abaqus/Standard to Abaqus/Explicit with the Hashin damage model. All tests subject the elements to uniaxial tension and compression loading in Abaqus/Standard. The model is then imported into Abaqus/Explicit and is subjected to further uniaxial tension and compression loading. Two fiber orientations, 0° and 45°, are considered. All the tests include problems that import neither the reference configuration nor the state, problems that import only the state, problems that import only the reference configuration, and problems that import both the reference configuration and the state.
The import capability is validated by comparing various damage variables and energy dissipation due to damage after each import of the results; the response after import is as expected.

The default and nondefault degradation behaviors are tested. By default, in Abaqus/Standard elements are deleted if the damage variable for each failure mode and at each material point reaches the default maximum degradation value, 
. On the other hand, the default behavior in Abaqus/Explicit is to delete an element when the damage variables associated with either of the fiber failure modes (tensile or compressive) reaches 
at all the section points at any one integration location of an element. You can control whether or not element deletion is activated, and you can specify the value of the damage variable at or above which a material point will be assumed to be completely damaged.
Each model consists of nine elements. A linear elastic material is assigned to all the elements except one, for which a fiber reinforced damage model is used. The specimen is subjected to biaxial extension, which is followed by biaxial compression. For each of the elements three different cases are tested:
default behavior (, and elements are deleted if the deletion criteria are satisfied);
default value of maximum degradation (), and the elements remain active even if the deletion criteria are satisfied; and
the maximum degradation is specified (0.99 for Abaqus/Standard tests; 0.975 for Abaqus/Explicit tests), and the elements remain active even if the deletion criteria are satisfied.
In Abaqus/Standard simulations, the first step (biaxial extension) causes the fiber tensile and matrix tensile modes to be completely damaged. In the subsequent biaxial compression step the remaining two failure modes (fiber and matrix compressive modes) are completely damaged as well. The evolutions of damage variables stop when the value of is reached. Once the maximum degradation is reached at all material points for all failure modes, the elements are deleted when deletion is requested and remain active when element deletion is not requested. In Abaqus/Explicit simulations, the criterion for element deletion is met during the first step as the fibers fail in tensile mode. The element is deleted or remains active depending on whether or not element deletion is activated.

Hashin's damage initiation criteria with energy-based evolution law are tested with different types of procedures in Abaqus/Standard.
This verification test consists of small models (up to nine elements) that are used with various procedure types in Abaqus/Standard. Element removal and reactivation using model change are tested by removing the element, reactivating it in the subsequent step, and verifying that all the state variables are reset correctly. The dynamic and Riks analyses are tested by comparing the numerical results with the analytical results. Finally, the linear perturbation procedures are tested by performing a general step in which the material properties are degraded before the perturbation step and then comparing the results with those obtained using a material without damage with appropriately modified parameters.
The results agree well with exact analytical results or numerical results obtained using undamaged material.
