    VUSDFLD subroutine for storing charLength

    Dear all, I have a problem with the VUSDFLD subroutine. The purpose is very simple: to store both triaxiality and characteristic length to use them as field variables for a damage model. The subroutine works well for the triaxiality ratio, which is calculated from the stress tensor (see...

    Conversion from USDFLD to VUSDFLD subroutine

    Hi everybody, I have implemented a damage model in Abaqus/STANDARD including the triaxiality ratio (TRIAX) as a field variable. To this end, I used a very simple user subroutine USDFLD. However, I have updated the model for Abaqus/EXPLICIT but I have no idea how convert the USDFLD...

    Include triaxiality dependence in a damage evolution law

    Hi, I'm trying to include triaxiality dependence within the damage evolution law. In Abaqus, I can define the damage evolution law in a tabular form, which relates the damage variable, D, and the displacement. My question is whether or not can I include triaxiality dependence as an...

    Cyclic behaviour. Connectors

    Hi All, I am trying to model the cyclic behaviour of a connector (loading, unloading, and different behaviour in tension and compression) and I think that none of the capabilities of connectors in Abaqus enable to do this. I would be very grateful if you could point me in the right...
