ES 246 Project: Large Deformation Plasticity of Amorphous Solids, with Application and Implementation into Abaqus
node/add/imageI propose to investigate an elastic-viscoplastic constitutive model proposed by Anand and Gurtin [1] for the large deformation of amorphous solids. Specifically, I will present the constitutive framework proposed for elastic-plastic amorphous materials, I will implement the constitutive equations into Abaqus/Explicit, and I will compare numerical results with experimental results for polycarbonate [2].

VUMAT
Hello;
I am a student in mechanical, I work on polymer materials, I order to implement the model Aruda - Boyce, I have a problem to do so. Is what you can m'aidé?
Thank you
fracture mechanics project
hello
i am lokesh,pursuing M.TECH from IIT MADRAS.i want to do project in fracture mechanics.from last 2 month i am searching for a problem.i have only 5 month to complete project.can you suggest me some project about fracture mechanics.
ialso want to know about 2d and 3d crack propagation simulation.is it good problem?can we use only matlab for crack propagation simulation?i want to know other possibilities for performing crack simulation?please help me and suggest good projects,which can be completed in 5 months.
thanks
regards
lokesh choudhary
vumat -shear Loading probelm
I have written a VUMAT code for Isotropic -Viscoplasticity material using the finite strain theory and matirx "F" and Anand theory,
the code works properly for compression and tension test, however , under shear loading it work just properly if I use only one single element to model the specimen.
when I increase the numebr of elements under simple shear loading the model starts to oscillate until similation aborted.
it seems that elements can not tranfer shear loading among each other, I am usnig C3D8R element, and also I coneverted my Couchy stress to Green naghdi stress
anybody has idea how to solve this problem.
Regards
Kianoosh
can u share your anand model
can u share your anand model's codes with me? I have studyed anand model for a long time, but I cann't understand the corresponding theory. So if you can share the vumat or umat codes with me, I would appreciate it very much. my papers are as follows. if you have any ideas, I can also answer u. anyway, thanks you very much!
