I am trying to call VUSDFLD subroutine before VUMAT. I need to access some variables which are not available in VUMAT. Does anyone know how I can force ABAQUS into calling VUSDFLD before VUMAT? Thanks.

hello everybody
i want to develop a constitutive law for fiber reinforced composite. so i am using umat subroutine to simulate it in abaqus.
when i begin analysis i got error code 144.
my question is: is jacobian matrix DDSDDE can be to cause for this error??
and i read that i can use uhard subroutine for isotropic and combined hardening.
using this subroutine we can get yield surface from hardening curve, so we must enter some value in abaqus^material^(yield stress with corresponding strain)

Dear Colleagues,
I wish to bring to your attention my recent work with Mrinal Iyer on a field theoretic approach to the quasi-continuum method to appear in Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids. Below is the abstract and attached is the preprint of the article. I will very much appreciate your comments and suggestions.
A Field Theoretic Approach to the Quasi-Continuum Method
In Abaqus .inp or Abaqus/CAE, are there mesh generation commands similar to ANSYS commands FILL, NGEN, and EGEN used to geneate nodes (between keypoints) and elements ?
Brown University established a School of Engineering on July 1, 2010 and is beginning a major hiring initiative to fill multiple openings. As part of this initiative, the School is seeking to fill a position in Solid Mechanics at any academic level to start in July 2011.
