Anything about defining custom materials in AdvantEdge?

First of all I woul like to present myself.

I am Ana Munteanu from Romania, Galati, Mechanical engineering, and my doctoral these is on machining polymeric materials. I have an soft programme (FEM) ThirdWave system advantEdge version five and I would like to simulate turning of polymeric materials. The soft is for mettalic materials, but the programme have capabilities of defining custom material.

My problem is: the soft ask me some coefficients of my polymeric materials, and I have no idee how to find them.

 am a student of M. Tech. 2nd year. My project topic for dissertation is "Numerical & Experimental Estimation of Fracture Toughness of Some Materials using Compact Tension Specimen". In this dissertation I also wanted to develop a code which directly gives me the values of stress intensity factor just like ansys.

Actually I have develop an matlab programm (using linear quadrilateral element) which gives me the value of displacement at the cracktip using that i would be finding the displacement extrapolation method i would be calculating stress intensity factors

ABAQUS/CAE
Matlab

Dear all,

 

I went through the forums and came across one similar topic, posted by alex_612 "Using Matlab to optimize the ABAQUS/Explicit FE mode", but with no replies. So I would like to bring this similar topic up again.



The problem:



1. I would like to open ABAQUS CAE thought MATLAB (which i have managed to do with the dos('command')), and then run a script as well, through MATLAB. I am using MATLAB 7 and would preferably like to run the whole process thought MATLAB.
