Overview

User subroutine UDEMPOTENTIAL:

• can be used to define the variation of the magnetic vector potential as a function of position, time, element number, etc. for a transient eddy current or magnetostatic analysis or as a function of position, excitation frequency, phase, element number, etc. for a time-harmonic eddy current analysis;
• will be called for each surface-based nonuniform electromagnetic potential definition during eddy current or magnetostatic analysis; and
• ignores any amplitude references that may appear with the associated step definition or nonuniform distributed electromagnetic potential definition.

• “Modeling discontinuities as an enriched feature using the extended finite element method,” Section 10.7.1 of the Abaqus Analysis User’s Guide
• *DAMAGE INITIATION

Overview

User subroutine UDMGINI:

• can be used to specify a user-defined damage initiation criterion;
• allows the specification of more than one failure mechanism in an element, with the most severe one governing the actual failure;
• can be used in combination with several Abaqus built-in damage evolution models, with each model corresponding to a particular failure mechanism;
• will be called at all integration points of elements for which the material definition contains userdefined damage initiation criterion;
• can call utility routine GETVRM to access material point data; and
• is currently available only for enriched elements.

Variables to be defined

FINDEX(NFINDEX)

A Vector defining the indices for all the failure mechanisms.

FNORMAL(NDI, NFINDEX)

An Array defining the normal direction to the fracture plane (three dimensions) or line (two dimensions) for each failure mechanism.

Variables that can be updated

STATEV

An array containing the user-defined solution-dependent state variables at this point. This array will be passed in containing the values of these variables at the start of the increment unless the values are updated in user subroutine USDFLD. They can be updated in this subroutine to their values at the end of the increment. You define the size of this array by allocating space for it (see “Allocating space” in “User subroutines: overview,” Section 18.1.1 of the Abaqus Analysis User’s Guide, for more information).

SSE,SPD,SCD,SVD,SMD

Specific elastic strain energy, plastic dissipation, “creep” dissipation, viscous, and damage energy, respectively, passed in as the values at the start of the increment and should be updated to the corresponding specific energy values at the end of the increment. They have no effect on the solution, except that they are used for energy output.

Variables passed in for information

NFINDEX
