VUHARD for material subroutine and abaqus 6.13.1 requirements

Submitted by aayusha on

Hi all,

I am new at subroutine and abaqus requirements and its compatibility. I am trying to use a subroutine VUHARD for the material modeling of polycrystalline material under shock loading. I am not sure if I can use VUHARD because of my lack of experience in subroutines. I have couple of questions listed below and I would really appreciate if anyone can give me a insight in this subject.

1) Can I use visco-plastic formulation (rate- dependent) in VUHARD?

Fluid Modeling by Lagrangian elements

Submitted by ho1mo on

Hi

I want to extract frequencies from a fluid/structure model by ABAQUS, but fluid elements just available in Explicit library, and frequency procedure just put on Abaqus Standard, So I decide to use lagrangian element instead of eulerian for fluid. But I don't know how I can do it,

Has EveryBody a solution to extracting frequencies of fluids instead of what I mentioned?

 

Thanks in advanced

Adaptive periodical representative volume element for simulating periodical postbuckling behavior

Submitted by Bin Liu on

Finite element method (FEM) with fixed representative volume element (RVE) encounters some difficulties in simulating the periodical postbuckling behaviors of infinite long beam or infinite large film on soft substrate under compression, because the wavelength and pattern of buckling are not known before simulation and will change with the increase of compression strain.

Read Strain energy density from ODB and change youngs modulus in .inp

Submitted by aravindkj on

Hi guys,

I am quiet a newbie to Python. I need to read strain energy density from ODB file and change young's modulus in the .inp file. 

I first aim to read the SED from .odb and save it in a text file or data file. I tried for a week but no leads.

Can anyone please help me with that. It will be really helpful. 

Thank you

Cheers
