User Element for muscle model, with static condensation

Hi all

 

I am in the process of developing my first user element in Abaqus, and finding it rather difficult. 

The
application requires modelling muscle behaviour. Hence a spring model
(linear at this stage) with 3 elements: 2 in series with each other,
and these 2, parallel to the third was implemented.

My problem involves static condensation of the stiffness matrix. (similar to mixed-methods)

Any advice/assistance would be great. Especially with regard to development of the user element in Abaqus.
