Dear All,



Could you suggest any literature or online step by step tutorial on how to create your own subroutines in ABAQUS like umeshmotion or umat. Any relevant information would be much appreciated. I am looking for information that are not covered in the ABAQUS manual.



Thanks very much in advace,



Nicholas


Geometric non linearity-peymann et all

Submitted by kajalschopra on

Computational Mechanics Forum

Consider attached file.It lists the details of the Timoshinko method for geometric non linear analysis.

Can anyone tell me how is it diiferent from incremental analysis conceptually?

Is it used commercially?Which method is more sophisticated-Timoshinko,incremental or Newton Raphson?

Please help

Question about curve fitting indentation data with large residual strain

I am trying to use finite element modeling of indentation experiments
to extract hyperelastic material parameters. I am having a dilemma,
when the tissue has residual strain, the model couldn't achieve the
high nonlinear relationship between displacement vs reaction force as
measured in the experiments.



I have tried several strain energy potentials,

1) W=A/B*{exp[B(I1-3)]-1}

2) W=C10(I1-3)+C01(I2-3) 

3) W=C10(I1-3)+C20(I1-3)^2+C30(I1-3)^3

4) Arruda-Boyce type model

Johnson-Cook Material Model, Abaqus Explicit

Submitted by D. Barrett Hardin on

Johnson Cook Plasticity Model

I am currently running a Quasi-Static compression simulation in Abaqus Explicit using the Johnson-Cook Plasticity option. As the strain gets beyond the elastic range, the stress-strain response begins to oscillate +- 5 MPa around the expected curve. Does anyone know why this is happening and/or how to repair the problem?

Thanks, 

D. Barrett Hardin
