Remarks on UMAT for plane stress problem
There are a lot of sample UMAT subroutines for plane strain or 3D problems. However, it is difficult to find an example for the plane stress problem online. Even the UMAT manual does not provide enough information. I have tried the UMAT subroutine for the plane stress problem for a while. The following remarks may be useful for collegues who have interest.
1. The stress components σ11, σ22, σ12 should be returned to UMAT. The other three stress components equal to zero, known as the basic assumption of the plane stress problem.

uel mass diffusion/heat transfer
hi all,
I am a PhD student .for my research I must ecire a uel to visualize the distribution of moisture in the composite polyester / fiberglass exposed to two different temperatures on both sides with abaqus.
any help is appriciessed
"Evaluation of stresses in Isogeometric analysis"
Hi,
I am trying to find the method of stress evaluation used in Isogeometric analysis. I havn't come to know any numerical process for stress computation along with its implementation in IGA. Can someone please help me in this regard.
Thanks -Vishal

Evolution of elastic modulus in roll forming
Abstract: Roll forming is a continuous process in which a flat strip is incrementally bent to a desired profile. This process is increasingly used in automotive industry to form High Strength Steel (HSS) and Advanced High Strength Steel (AHSS) for structural components. Because of the large variety of applications of roll forming in the industry, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is increasingly employed for roll forming process design. Formability and springback are two major concerns in the roll forming AHSS materials.

One project (NSF grant) is about multi-phase field modeling of formation and evolution of intermetallics and oxides at high temperatures in advanced high strength steels. Another project (NSF grant) is about multi-phase field modeling of evolution of oxide bifilms in solidification of metals.
Simplified slip-bearing action by using stop ellement in Abaqus
Hi
can anyone please advise me to define connector ellements with following details:
Using rigid plastic CARTESIAN element and a STOP element in parallel and The connector behaviour must be:
1- rigid up to the slip force limit Rn
2- slip at the bolts up to ±1 mm at constant force Rn
3- rigid bearing hardening
