Implement subroutines in Femap
Hi all, What is the equivalent tool in Femap of Abaqus subroutines (UMAt & VUMAT written in Fortran) ? The API sounds like a postprocessing tool. I am a new user of Femap and bit confused as my baseline is Abaqus. Thank you for your help. Regards, Graduate Stress Engineer- MarekBRS

FEMAP API: Leverage C++ to Speed Up Calculations
Hi Ryan, Thank you for this tutorial. I would like to implement a user-defined composite material law into Femap. The material law includes an elastic area and then damage propagation (bilinear law). Does the API in Femap is the technical tool? Do I need a compiler? If yes which one? I am...- MarekBRS

Composite Damage Modelling Femap / User-defined material
Hi TG_eng, Thank you for your feedback. It sounds that the Cohesive element property cards exist. The idea is to represent the interface between 2 plies with a cohesive layer and check if the applied load induces delamination. However, I would like also to include a bilinear material model...- MarekBRS

Composite Damage Modelling Femap / User-defined material
Dear all, I hope you are keeping safe and well. Does anyone know how can I implement a user-defined material law using Femap ? The material law deals with the intralaminar damage modelling of UD composite at the mesoscale level. I did a similar work involving UMAT/VUMAT subroutines to...- MarekBRS
