Dear all,

I am developing a user material in which the material parameters will be functions of lengths of elements. Because I cannot retrieve the nodes coordinates from UMAT, so I have to use USDFLD to extract these data. Subsequently, I transfer these data to UMAT. My question is how can we write an input file in Abaqus in which we combine UMAT and USDFLD? Could every one of you please share me your experience?
Every input is highly appreciated.

I thank you in advance.

With my best regards,
Ken
