Hi all,
I want to model a soil body which its shear modulus changes with the deviatoric strain.I know it can be introduced in ABAQUS by field variables (defining a field variable). But the question is that how can I tell ABAQUS that the defined variable is the "deviatoric strain" ?
Thank you beforehand.

Hi there,
Recently I have modelled a 2D block of soil, at the first step of analysis the soil block subjected to a gravitational load (Gravity) and gravitational stresses generated in the soil block, at the second step, a little rectangular part of soil block removed and currently a concrete block with same size of removed soil embedded on the soil block. this concrete block to be subjected a surface loading.
