Description
Implementation of Lemaitre Damage model with VUMAT subroutine
In this training package, as it is clear in its syllabus, the concept of damage is first explained using the literature reviews. This model is now widely used to deal with coupled damage analyses for various mechanical applications. The Lemaitre model is the damage model that occurs simultaneously with plasticization. And then, Coupled yield equation with the damage equation is presented. Abaqus Lemaitre damage training package is available for solid mechanics students on the CAEassistant shop.
In this package, Firstly, we try to introduce the Lemaitre damage model, including damage mechanics and formulation of the model. Then, writing the Lemaitre subroutine is reached step by step. To do this job, the flowchart of the subroutine, Writing the subroutine line by line, implementation of the subroutine in one element and verification is done. In the last chapter, we implement this subroutine in a complex problem and an upsetting process.
It should be noted that in this damage model, the operator split method is used to solve the equations, and after these equations are solved, the elastic and plastic deformation and their laws are introduced one by one. And it will be explained how to use it in subroutine writing with the help of this theory.
In the next part, the VUMAT subroutine flowchart and its needed inputs and outputs are presented. It should be noted that there are a series of state variables in this subroutine, which can be used to check the outputs given by the subroutine, which include the equivalent plastic strain, the damage parameter, and also the element deletion by another state variable is examined.
Notice: if you are not completely familiar with writing VUMAT subroutines, you should get the VUMAT introduction training package, or if you need more professional information, get the advanced UMAT & VUAMT package version from the website. It should be noted that in this training package, it is necessary to use the Lemaitre VUMAT subroutine due to the hardening topic; you should use VUHARD, too; the VUHARD package is also available in the training packages.
The “Implementation of Lemaitre Damage model with VUMAT subroutine” package is used for shell elements. The equation is based on Finite element simulation of the punchless piercing process with Lemaitre damage model article. If you want to get more information about the Lemaitre damage modeling package, please watch the Demo video.
What is the Lemaitre damage model?
This model is a model whose hardening is isotropic and rate-dependent. Also, the yield is based on the von Mises criterion, which is combined with the Lemaitre damage model.
Is the Lemaitre damage model very different from the ductile damage models? And what is the difference between them?
Yes, this model is different from the normal damage model that exists in ABAQUS and other software. In the Lemaitre damage model, yielding and plasticization occur simultaneously with damage, but in the normal models that exist, the damaged area and the plasticity area are two separate areas.

Creep Analysis in Abaqus
In engineering, creep phenomenon refers to the gradual deformation or strain that occurs in a material over time when it is subjected to a constant load or stress (usually lower than yield stress) at high temperatures. It is a time-dependent process that can lead to the permanent deformation and failure of the material if not properly accounted for in design considerations. Creep analysis is vital in engineering to understand material behavior under sustained loads and high temperatures. It enables predicting deformation and potential damage, ensuring safe and reliable structures. Industries like power generation and aerospace benefit from considering creep for long-term safety and durability of components.
In this training package, you will learn about Creep phenomenon and its related matters; you will learn several methods to estimate the creep life of a system’s components, such as Larson-Miller; moreover, all Abaqus models for the creep simulation such as Time-Hardening law and Strain-Hardening law will be explained along with Creep subroutine; also, there would be practical examples to teach you how to do these simulations.
Johnson-Holmquist damage model in Abaqus
The Johnson-Holmquist damage model is used in solid mechanics to simulate the mechanical behavior of damaged brittle materials over a range of strain rates, including ceramics, rocks, and concrete. These materials typically exhibit gradual degradation under load due to the development of microfractures and typically have high compressive strength but low tensile strength. In this package, there are 13 practical examples to teach you how to use this damage model. The workshops are categorized into Ceramic materials, concrete, glass materials, and others.
Hardening plasticity in Abaqus
In this package, hardening plasticity in the Abaqus software using Abaqus material models or UMAT subroutine or UHARD subroutine is discussed. It should be mentioned using a subroutine to define hardening could be more professional and this package tries to familiarize users with these subroutines for hardening definitions. So, if you want to write these subroutines for your customized project in the hardening plasticity field, I recommend you the "UMAT Subroutine (VUMAT Subroutine) introduction" and "UHARD Subroutine (VUHARD Subroutine) in ABAQUS".
Steel Damage types in Abaqus
Steel materials are everywhere and used in almost every structure, from the building you live into the car you drive. Therefore, it’s essential to know the steel properties and behaviors when it’s under different loading conditions such as compression, tension, cyclic load, impact, etc. moreover, knowing the damage mechanism of steel structures helps to have better designing. In this tutorial package, you will learn how to analyze steel structures when they’re damaged with practical examples. There are five workshops here that could teach you the damage mechanism of steel structures: Simulation of bolt failure on the steal beam, reinforced concrete containment damage mechanism under internal explosion, tensile test of a steel specimen, impact on ceramic plate reinforced by steel plate, water jet cutting simulation.
Johnson Cook plasticity and damage simulation
To drive new ideas, we occasionally need to modify the theory of Johnson-equations. Cook's As a result, we learn how to use the Abaqus model for Johnson Cook theory as well as how to create subroutines for this model in this training package. There are already two written subroutines. You will learn how to apply Johnson-Cook progressive damage in the second one after learning how to apply Johnson-Cook plasticity and damage initiation in the first.
Abaqus steel material and structures Full Tutorial
Here in this training package, numerous models of crack steel material structures modeling, such as the shear failure, FLD criterion and different metal damage theories in concrete, steel, dams, and bones are examined through ten step-by-step tutorials. Every tutorial includes all needed files and step-by-step English videos and is explained from A to Z.
We also offer a similar budget-friendly package that includes all the workshops from this package. However, since it does not include the lessons, it is available at a lower price. You can purchase it on our website at a more competitive rate than similar platforms.
Simulation of SMA in Abaqus with UMAT
Shape-memory alloys (SMAs) have the ability to recover their original shape, thanks to the shape-memory effect and superelasticity. These unique characteristics have led to the broad usage of SMAs in engineering and medical applications. Simulations offer cost-effective methods for analyzing SMAs’ behavior, ultimately enhancing their reliability and performance. Consequently, researchers frequently employ simulations to investigate SMA-based systems. This educational package begins by exploring the fundamentals of SMA wires, presenting their various types and specific capabilities. It then provides the necessary constitutive equations to describe the behavior of SMAs in simulation. The package includes a flowchart and a step-by-step guide for writing a subroutine to model SMAs in Abaqus. Users will also discover a workshop that uses Abaqus to simulate the superelasticity effect in SMA wires. This workshop not only offers guidance on the simulation and the implementation of the subroutine, but also compares the result with an analytical solution for verification.

Your package performed excellently in our projects, and we were able to achieve desirable results. Overall, using this package was a positive experience, and our simulations showed significant improvement. One of the benefits was the accuracy and reliability of the results provided. My question is whether there are regular updates for this package, and how can we stay informed about these updates?
