UMAT for Saturated Soil Behavior

[frosti1]

Hi
I am writing UMAT for saturate clayey soil, but we know that ABAQUS built-in porous element is not compatible with UMAT. Does any body have any advise to solve the problem?
Regards

Abaqus doesn't accept any UMAT with porous element.
is there any method to solve this problem?
