Underlying Material Response for Lüders-Like Instabilities
► The underlying material response of partially unstable materials is measured. ► This is done for Lüders deformed steel and a shape memory alloy. ► They both exhibit an up-down-up response. ► The extracted responses used in numerical models reproduce the structural responses.

I've performed a fatigue experiment on aluminium.I want to observe the microstructure and make a qualitative/ quantitative analysis of strains based on observation the grains.Is there any technique that would help me achieve the objective?Could someone help me on this?
Random strength (weibull distribution) input at each integration point in Abaqus
Hello,
I am trying to input random strength (following weibull distribution) at each integration point. I want to use either USDFLD (preferably) or UMAT subroutines in Abaqus. Please help me in this regards. Any references/suggestions will be great.
