Dear colleagues
Hope you're fine

Using USDFLD subroutine,
how one can be sure which component of the desired variable is he/she using?
For example we know that 1,2,3...6 components of Stress would refer to S11,S22,S33,....S23 but what about other variables (eg. FLVEL
Current magnitude and components of the pore fluid effective velocity vector.
or
SINV
All stress invariant components )?

Where we can find the order of each variables' components,
or
How can we check and make sure that we are using the right component?

Regards,
Yunus.

PS1: Using USDFLD subroutine + GETVRM utility , you need to call each Variables' components by ARRAY(1), ARRAY(2), etc. commands.

PS2: below documentation links have been checked:
4.2.1 Abaqus/Standard output variable identifiers

2.1.6 Obtaining material point information in an Abaqus/Standard analysis

2.2.5 Orientations

This is explained in the documentation chapter "Obtaining Material Point Information in an Abaqus/Standard Analysis", paragraph "Ordering of Returned Components". Single index components are returned in positions 1,2,3 and so on.
