Use the Additional Network subnode to define additional contributions to the
Parallel Network model defined by the parent
Polymer Viscoplasticity node. A
Polymer Viscoplasticity node can have any number of
Additional Network subnodes with different settings to model advanced viscoplastic mechanisms.
When the Parallel Network model differs between layers, you will need to add several
Additional Networks nodes with different layer selections. If the model is the same, and only the material data values differ, you can use a single
Additional Network node where
From material is used to define the values. The data for each layer is then received from global
Layered Material nodes.
If the same layer is selected in two Additional Network nodes being active on the boundary, then there will be two additional contributions
