    Abaqus UEL higher-order element

    Hello team. I am looking for a UEL file for a simple elastic 2D and/or 3D higher-order element (quadrangular with 8 nodes, triangular with 6 nodes, hexahedral with 20 nodes, tetrahedral with 10 nodes). Where I could find such a file? In other words, I wish to replace the build-in higher-order...
