Abstract

AbstractThis work addresses an efficient low order virtual element method (VEM) for the modeling of single‐slip crystal plasticity system undergoing finite deformations. VEM has been attracting attention as a novel scheme within the field of computational mechanics. A key advantage of VEM is the ability of constructing an arbitrary element shapes that can be non‐convex [1]. Another important aspect is that VEM fits the grain shapes of crystal plasticity within polycrystalline aggregates perfectly. Contrary, classical finite element (FE) approaches request a fine mesh‐size at possibly sharp geometric regions, i.e. complex shaped grain boundaries.
