[optin-monster slug=”khin3hlh6o8vag5wx9gj” followrules=”true”]This package is usable when the material model is not available in ABAQUS software. If you follow this tutorial package, including standard and explicit solver, you will have the ability to write, debug and verify your subroutine based on customized material to use this in complex structures. These lectures are an introduction to write advanced UMAT and VUMAT subroutines in hyperelastic Martials, Composites and Metal and so on.

Description

Introduction to UMAT Subroutine (VUMAT)

During the process of solving each problem, ABAQUS uses a specific program to relate the strain to the stress (the material model). So, If we can not use the material model in  ABAQUS/CAE,  the user should write the subroutine format known to ABAQUS as UMAT subroutine (in standard solver) or VUMAT subroutine (in explicit solver). Learn UMAT Abaqus subroutine with complete and best-quality lectures in this video training package, and if you want to buy UMAT Abaqus course, you are in the right place.

In fact, this subroutine is used to define complex or unusual and novel material models that are not available by default in ABAQUS.

Indeed, this tutorial package contains basic principles and concepts along with practical examples to learn UMAT Abaqus. In other words, the ultimate goal of this tutorial is to give the user the ability to write UMAT subroutine and VUMAT subroutine to define the mechanical behavior of materials and introduce them to the ABAQUS software. See full information about what you are learning in the drop-down menu by clicking here.

You can find a demo of this package on our channel on YouTube.

Moreover, the general description of how to write a subroutine is available in the article titled “Start Writing a Subroutine in Abaqus: Basics and Recommendations “. You may also like this article to begin writing your own UMAT: Start Writing Your First UMAT in Abaqus

Workshop 1: Writing UMAT Subroutine for Isotropic Isothermal Elasticity

Firstly, in the first workshop, the behavior of the material is an isotropic linear elastic. Firstly, structural equations are fully explained. After that, the lecturer writes the UMAT subroutine and compares the results obtained from the subroutine with the results without the use of the subroutine. See full information about this workshop and what you learn in the drop-down menu by clicking here. You can learn UMAT Abaqus by checking this Umat Abaqus course syllables.

Workshop 2: Writing UMAT Subroutine for Elasticity and TSAI failure criterion of composite material

Subsequently, the elastic behavior of orthotropic materials is described in the second workshop. After that, the lecturer writes the UMAT subroutine for the elastic behavior of these materials along with the failure initiation of composite materials and verifies the results obtained from the graphical environment of ABAQUS software. See full information about this workshop and what you learn in the drop-down menu by clicking here.

Workshop 3: Writing VUMAT Subroutine for Brittle Materials + Element Removal

Thirdly, the elasticity behavior of isotropic material is simulated for brittle materials along with element removal in the third workshop. In other words, the difference between this workshop and the first workshop is using the VUMAT subroutine, considering the failure criterion, and setting the element removal. See full information about this workshop of the Umat Abaqus course and what you learn in the drop-down menu by clicking here.

Workshop 4: Writing VUMAT Subroutine for Isotropic Hardening Plasticity

Finally, a complex example is examined. To clarify, In this simulation, computational plasticity equations are used. That is to say; the lecturer simulates the elastic behavior along with the plastic behavior of the material is also simulated. In conclusion, stress, internal energy, and dissipative energy are the output of the VUMAT subroutine based on isotropic hardening plasticity. See full information about this workshop and what you learn in the drop-down menu by clicking here.

If you want to buy UMAT Abaqus course, you can contact our experts on the live chat on the left side of this page.

Get more basic information about Abaqus subroutine writing

The Abaqus user subroutine allows the program to be customized for particular applications unavailable through the main Abaqus facilities. You should write a user subroutine if you could not run your analysis by ABAQUS built-in models for materials, loads, properties, elements, etc., for example, if you need to model a user-defined nonlinear stress-strain relation, which is not provided by Abaqus, then look for UMAT user subroutine. A more advanced subroutine is UEL, which allows the creation of user-defined elements. If it is your first time writing a subroutine like UMAT, please read the Start Writing an Abaqus Subroutine: Basics & Recommendations article. After reading this post and watching this tutorial’s demo video, you will definitely decide to save time in Abaqus modelling and get this UMAT training package. If you have questions, ask here on our live chat on the left side of this page.

What does the UMAT Abaqus do?

Obviously, the philosophy behind the UMAT Abaqus subroutine is that the material model developer should be concerned only with the development of the material model and not the development and maintenance of the FE model.

Referring to the article How to start writing a subroutine (Section 3), you can see we use a UMAT in the stress calculation step.

So, the main output of a UMAT subroutine is the stress tensor. In the process, Abaqus must also define the (consistent) Jacobian to continue its incremental scheme. Generally, to write a newly developed UMAT, you should follow these steps:

1. Knowing well the material model theory for our UMAT Abaqus

2. Getting Familiar with UMAT Abaqus parameters (Inputs/Outputs)

3. Developing FORTRAN code of the UMAT in Abaqus

4. Implementation in Abaqus & Compilation

5. Testing and debugging UMAT subroutine

6. Examining UMAT results and verification

    hmenginsoy – July 27, 2021

    It is a training that has been prepared by a very professional, reliable and expert team in its field and has the feature of creating a solid infrastructure for users. All the examples (they also send you all the application files) are presented in a very clear and explanatory way, by mentioning everything needed one by one (especially how the theoretical principles on different subjects should be applied, etc.). They dealt with everything in detail and quickly (before and after) the training process. Thank you so much.

3D continuum Abaqus HASHIN progressive Damage for composite materials (VUMAT Subroutine)

Rated 5.00 out of 5
€ 320
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.
