Hello all,
I am trying to model concrete as an elastic material in ABAQUS. The model can be any simple structure (cube, beam or column) but the main feature is that concrete behaviour is elastic up to a limiting strain (St. Venant's theory). Which of the Failure criteria in ABAQUS i should be using (Elasticity or brittle cracking)? if neither would you mind explaining other options?
Thanks
Hussam
Hi all,
I 'd like to ask whether anyone has applied XFEM for a user-material (UMAT). What is the process to do that? Could anyone provide some advice, documentation or guidelines?
All the best,
Panos
p.s. I 've heard that a UEL code is needed to couple XFEM with UMAT.

Dear friends,
I want to model axial surface crack in pipes using ABAQUS. I had knowledge in modeling through wall cracks. I need some modeling instructions related to axial crack modeling in pipes. I appreciate your effort and thankful to you.

Hi
Iwant to know if there is any other way except user subroutine for applying nonuniform load in a 2 dimesional abaqus model.
thanks
I want to share our recent research work on FCC metallic nanowires, which is published in Journal of Physical Chemistry - C (ACS Publications). The abstract of the paper is given below. Further details can be found at " Sutrakar et al J. Phys. Chem. C, 2011, 115 (21), pp 10394–10398
