Abstract

A ring mesh is a large-scale manufacturable structure with versatile applications in architecture and for protective systems. However, the static and dynamic numerical simulation of a large-scale ring mesh is a resource-intensive task due to the many nonlinear contact points between the individual rings. To characterize the rigid body behavior of the ring mesh, in this paper, a representative volume element is loaded under different in-plane directions. The Green-Lagrangian strain tensor components are obtained as a result. An implicit one-step algorithm is used for this dynamic relaxation issue, modified by the use of stiff springs. Static convergence positions of a representative volume element are determined in several multiaxial tensile directions. The obtained deformation parameters can be used to simulate large deformations of large-scaled ring meshes.
