Abaqus for beginners (Abaqus tutorial for civil engineering)
In the present Abaqus tutorial for civil engineering package, we have presented all the software skills that a civil engineer needs when he wants to use his/her engineering knowledge in computer-aided designing. Abaqus tutorial for civil engineering covers all you need to simulate concrete, reinforcements, buckling, frequency, damage, composite, cohesive and more topics. You can download the syllabus of this package here.
ABAQUS Projects Package
If you need common industrial simulations in the fields of forming, fracture, explosion, impact, etc., this package can provide you with comprehensive training along with an instructional video file and software file. You can quickly meet your educational needs in learning the elementary and intermediate level of Abaqus software using this package.
Essential Package
In this package, you can get comprehensive training of the following very useful four subroutines at a lower cost. In this package, more than 9 hours of practical training in the form of videos, PowerPoint, and workshops are provided.
During the years of our activities, many students and professors have received these 5 practical packages from us, and we decided to offer this popular package in the form of the “Essential Package” at a reasonable price.
We assure you that by providing this package, you will be answered to how to define the properties of complex materials or complex loads and contacts very quickly and will save you a lot of time. Because in the training workshops of these packages, there are several practical examples for using these subroutines that can make you a professional in writing them quickly.
Golden Package
If you are a graduate or Ph.D. student, if you are a university professor or an expert engineer in the industry who deals with simulation software, you are definitely familiar with the limitations of this software in defining the material properties, loading or meshing, interaction properties, and etc. You have certainly tried to define the properties of materials based on advanced fracture theories in finite element software and are familiar with their limitations and problems.
Now, here is your solution. Start writing subroutines in finite element software and overcome the limitations. With the tutorials in the Golden Package, you will learn how to write 8 subroutines in Abaqus software professionally.
3D continuum Abaqus HASHIN progressive Damage for composite materials (VUMAT Subroutine)
This tutorial teaches how to simulate damage in 3d continuum composite materials in ABAQUS. As you know, Abaqus does not have any material model for 3d composite materials. So, the user needs to write a customized subroutine to simulate damage initiation and progressive damage for composite materials in ABAQUS. In this package, one of the most practical damage initiation criteria (Hashin) is used to detect failure. It should be mentioned that this subroutine includes gradual progressive damage based on the energy method. This complex subroutine could be used for static and dynamic problems.
Professional Package
As a professional Abaqus user, you have probably faced cases where you have to move meshes and elements during analysis. For example, there is such a need in the wearing process. In addition, to define the properties of materials based on advanced theories of elasticity or plasticity, you need programming within the software. Sometimes you may need to model different types of cohesive or many types of composite materials based on various methods of composite damage. In all these cases, be sure that the professional package will answer you. This package is designed and prepared for you who are professionals and work on the edge of knowledge topics in the field of mechanical engineering and damage mechanics.
Sometimes you may need to use user-defined elements and change element configuration based on theories that you are using; for instance, it is needed to add more integration points in elements. In this case, you can use the UEL package in the “Professional Package”.
Introduction to UEL Subroutine in ABAQUS
UEL stands for User-defined Elements. When you have a finite element analysis that requires an element type that doesn't exist in the Abaqus element library, you must write a UEL subroutine. Or, when you want to define various element shape functions, the UEL would be the best choice. This subroutine is one of the most sophisticated in the Abaqus and is intended for advanced users. With this tutorial package, you can become an advanced user and learn how to write such a complex subroutine. This package contains two workshops: writing a UEL subroutine for a planar beam element with nonlinear section behavior and writing a UEL subroutine for a beam element with specific boundary conditions and loading.

Cohesive simulation for experts
Composite Fatigue Simulation with UMAT Subroutine in ABAQUS (unidirectional)
The composite fatigue training package completely teaches how to simulate and analyze a fatigue composite model with the help of UMAT Subroutine in Abaqus software. In this training package, we have provided all the files needed for your training, including articles, theories, how to write subroutines, and software settings.
UVARM subroutine in ABAQUS
Introduction to VFRICTION and VFRIC Subroutines in ABAQUS
This tutorial help you in cases where the classical Columbian equations are more complex and cannot be implemented by the graphical ABAQUS environment. This package introduces and teaches how to write these two subroutines. This introduction contains explaining different optional and mandatory parameters of VFRICTION and VFRIC subroutines.
Simulation of Unidirectional Composite Damage in ABAQUS
This package introduces and applies various theories to initiate and progress damage in composite materials based on ABAQUS capabilities for different elements. As you know, according to the modeling done by the micro or macro method, the way of defining the Abaqus composite damage completely follows the separate method in ABAQUS. This training package is customized for macro modeling of composite structures.
