Stretching and Spin Tensors Relations
Can someone help me to understand this please:
The stretching tensor (D) is the symmetric part of the velocity gradient (L), and if I derive D from L with using the polar decomposition of the deformation gradient (F=RU) I get the relation:
D=0.5 R (Udot Uinv + Uinv Udot) R' ----(Eq.1) where Udot is the time derivative of U, Uinv is the inverse of U, and the prime indicates the tranpose of the matrix.

Problem with Abaqus subroutine first increment
Hi everybody,
I´m working with umeshmotion subroutine, and Ihave one question.
Once I have submited the job and the subroutine, I can check that the nodes doesn´t move on the first increment in the subroutine´s step (the movement starts on the second increment), but in the .msg file I can see that the calculations has been made in the first increment.
Does anybody knows the reason?
Thanks in advance.

difference between elastic limit and proportional limit
hi all,
can anyone explain about the following basic questions
1. me the difference between the proportional limit and elastic limit.
Please dont give the definitions of both, i need some detailed explaination.
2. How many natural frequency a object can have?
