Collaboration between innovative companies results in total solution to perform non-destructive research on micro-level

Dear all

I want to start modeling the Hyper foam behavior in abaqus software, it is very usefull for me to consult with someone who works on that.

Dear all,

I' m trying to make a model in VUMAT for shape memory alloy based on Lagoudas 's thermomechanical constitutive model. It seems that It's necessary an iteration to evaluate the thermoelastic prediction.

My questions are : is it possible to use an iterative loop in the VUMAT or it's better to avoid it??Could someone suggest me a different way so that I can avoid the iterative loop?

Many thanks,

Cece
