Hello,
I have created a simple 1x1 cube model to represent tensile fatigue creep using a neo-hookean elastic term and simo damage term. I optimized this to experimental data by inputting a load curve of my peak displacement representing my creep and then optimized to my constant force. This gave a great fit. I am now trying to apply these same parameters to the same study but instead inputting a load curve of my experimental max force and getting the displacement as the output. When doing so the model quickly diverges. Is this do to the solution possibly not being unique or the damage evolving too quickly? Are there any other reasons why this might occur?
-Thanks for any help
