Shape Memory Polymer on Abaqus
Hello all
I am trying to create an easy model to simulate Shape Memory polymers on abaqus. I don't need an elaborated UMAT. Just some ideas to model an approximate behavior of the SMP.
Has anybody have any idea?
Thanks in advance.

Fild variable may suitable to you.
Maybe UMAT will expand your research and i am trying to write UMAT by myself.
if you are willing, please send email to me.

UMAT code for a shape memory polymer
Hello,
I know it's maybe a little bit late to ask you something but I try!
Did you succeed in running the subroutine into Abaqus?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Eric
Hi Eric
I know it is too late to ask you about the UMAT. Did you succeed in running this UMAT, I tried but seems it's doesn't work at all, if you have any thoughts about this UMAT, please let me know. Thnaks in advance, hopefullly you could see my message and give me a great help.
Best,
Qinan
Hi Eric,
Hi Eric,
I am also trying to use the subroutine. I am not sure about the material constants required.
Do you have any thoughts on them
thanks
