How to make a link between Abaqus and Fortran

Submitted by Rampa on

Hi mates

I am trying to make a link between Abaqus and Fortran. I faced a problem and have tried whatever recommended on the internet. But there is still something wrong!

I would really appreciate it if you could let me know your idea on how to resolve the problem. The error reported by "abaqus verify -user_std" has been brought, below. In fact, all requirements were recognized but at the end it is written that "Abaqus did not complete successfully".

As one of the most renewable resources on Earth, bamboo has recently attracted increasing interest for its promising applications in sustainable structural purposes. Its superior mechanical properties arising from the unique functionally-graded (FG) hierarchical structure also make bamboo an excellent candidate for bio-mimicking purposes in advanced material design. However, despite its well-documented, impressive mechanical characteristics, the intriguing asymmetry in flexural behavior of bamboo, alongside its underlying mechanisms, has not yet been fully understood.

Traumatic brain injuries from head impact are a major issue across areas such as defence, automotive and sports, and can be costly to research using experimental testing. These injuries can be explored, though, through 3D models created from scan data and computer simulations.
