Two different user-defined subroutines in Abaqus? Or, one user-defined subroutines with different material constants?

Submitted by Jungwook Kim on

Hi,

 

Does anyone know how to (if it is feasible)

1. use Two user-defined subroutines in one system?

or, alternatively,

2. use One user-defined subroutine with different material constants for different regions in one system?

(ex. one region uses a user-defined subroutine with material constant 10 and the other region uses the SAME

user-defined subroutine but with different material constant, e.g. 20).

 

Thank you!

 

Jungwook

Hello Everybody,

A wing was simplified with 8 dumbbelss or concentrated mass. The weight of the 8 dumbbells are:

{W}=[1.240 1.050 0.964 0.862 0.733 0.628 0.634 0.457]T

The static unbalance is:

{SA}=[0.2680 0.2910 0.1810 0.1610 0.1220 0.0884 0.0854 0.0598]T

The moment of inertia is:

{IA}=[0.412 0.437 0.272 0.230 0.157 0.143 0.115 0.055]T

Good morning

I'm working in Abaqus on drying modeling. Regards this i have two questions.

1)Drying modeling is possible in Abaqus

2)I would like to ask if it is possible for Abaqus to model drying how can i create automatic crack propagation in 2D or 3D

P.S. sorry for my english, i hope everything is clear enough to understand this post. i hope someone can help me.

Regards

A Field Theoretic Approach to the Quasi-Continuum Method

Submitted by Vikram Gavini on

Dear Colleagues,

I wish to bring to your attention my recent work with Mrinal Iyer on a field theoretic approach to the quasi-continuum method to appear in Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids. Below is the abstract and attached is the preprint of the article. I will very much appreciate your comments and suggestions.
