Total or Updated Lagrange?

Submitted by hadi on

Hi Guys,

Would someone let me know if ABAQUS uses total Lagrange or updated Lagrange formulation to calculate the strain-displacement or the so-called B matrix (ref. K J Bathe finite element procedures chapter 6), or whether or not one can switch from total to updated Lagrange and vice versa in ABAQUS?

best,
