    Combining odb results

    Greetings all, I have two meshes. Both with the same numbering and numbers of elements and nodes. The difference is that they're in different geometrical configurations. I am trying (without python) to import the nodal values in one mesh to the other. I'm at my wit's end! Please help...

    Elastic modulus change with strain rate

    You can specify the FV in CAE to make sure you're picking off the correct one based on where you're requesting it in the inp file. I end up always doing that because the wrong FV gets used for me quite frequently. Be careful about using plasticity considering your material option. If I...

    DG export in ABAQUS

    So true. I was using LE to calculate DF since there's no shear in my model. Thank you!

    DG export in ABAQUS

    No UMATs were involved in my previous model. Just a simple *hyperelastic model. I was getting DG from *EL FILE. I thought of implementing Fung into a UMAT, but that is my last resort. I figured this out though. I am NOT a Fortran guy at all, and I didn't write the original transfer...

    DG export in ABAQUS

    Thanks for the response. Sorry for the lack of info. I have been simulating a coupled porohyperelastic and mass transport problem with custom implemented transport material laws that require that calculation of a modified diffusivity based on the material state (DG). So we used to export the...

    DG export in ABAQUS

    Okay, so I've come to terms with the fact that ABAQUS won't let me get DG into my fil. So I'm just going to take the displacements and initial coordinates and get DG the old fashioned way. This means I have to modify some Fortran codes that work with a USUB we have here. It's the ABQMAIN USUB...

    DG export in ABAQUS

    Thanks in advance. Has anyone had trouble exporting the deformation gradient in ABAQUS? I'm using *EL FILE with 8-node brick pore stress elements. I have a hyperelastic model, and the documentation says that model type should work, however, ABAQUS will not export DG for me.
