2.1.17 ACCESSING Abaqus MATERIALS

Product: Abaqus/Standard

References

• “UELMAT,” Section 4.1.15 of the Abaqus Verification Guide

Overview

Utility routine MATERIAL_LIB_MECH returns the stress and the material Jacobian at the element material point.

The routine can be called only from Abaqus/Standard user subroutine UELMAT.

Interface

dimension stress(*),ddsdde(ntens,*,stran(*),dstran(*), * defGrad(3,3),predef(npredf),dpredef(npredf),coords(3) ... call material_lib_mech(materialllib,stress,ddsdde,stran,dstran, * npt,dvdv0,dvmat,dfgrd,predef,dpredef,npredf,celent,coords) ... 

Variables to be provided to the utility routine

materiallib

Variable containing information about the Abaqus material. This variable is passed into user subroutine UELMAT.

stran

Strain at the beginning of the increment.

dstran

Strain increment.

npt

Integration point number.

dvdv0

Ratio of the current volume to the reference volume at the integration point.

dvmat

Volume at the integration point.

dfgrd

Array containing the deformation gradient at the end of the increment.

predef

Array of interpolated values of predefined field variables at the integration point at the start of the increment.

dpredef

Array of increments of predefined field variables.

npredf

Number of predefined field variables, including temperature.

celent

Characteristic element length.

coords

An array containing the coordinates of this point. These are the current coordinates if geometric nonlinearities are accounted for during the step (see “Defining an analysis,” Section 6.1.2 of the Abaqus Analysis Users Guide); otherwise, the array contains the original coordinates of the point.

Variables returned from the utility routine

stress

Stress tensor at the end of the increment.

ddsdde

Jacobian matrix of the constitutive model, \partial \Delta \sigma / \partial \Delta \varepsilon , where \Delta \sigma are the stress increments and \Delta \varepsilon are the strain increments. ddsdde(i,j) defines the change in the ith stress component at the end of the time increment caused by an infinitesimal perturbation of the jth component of the strain increment array.

• “SMACfdUserPressureBC,” Section 1.3.1
• “SMACfdUserVelocityBC,” Section 1.3.2

Overview

Utility routine SMACfdUserSubroutineGetScalar can be called from a user subroutine to access selected output variables for elements or surface facets that are part of a boundary condition definition.

Interface

#include <SMACfdUserSubroutines.h>
const double* scalars = SMACfdUserSubroutineGetScalar("VAR"); 

Variable to be provided to the utility routine

VAR

Output variable key. The available variables are listed in “Available output variable keys.”

Variable returned from the utility routine

scalars

Real array containing scalar values of the output variable.

Available output variable keys

The following output variable keys are supported:

• AREA: Area of the surface facet.
• DENSITY: Element density.
• DIV: Element divergence.
• EVOL: Element volume.
• TEMP: Element temperature.
• TURBEPS: Element energy dissipation rate.
• TURBKE: Element turbulent kinetic energy.
• TURBNU: Element turbulent eddy viscosity.

• TURBOMEGA: Element-specific energy dissipation rate.

A requested output variable must be valid for the energy equation setting or turbulence model for the request to be successful.

The returned array scalars corresponds to the real-valued variable that can be associated with the request output variable key VAR. If the surface associated with an output variable does not have any facets on the current processor, the pointer returned from the method will be 0. The method will throw an exception and terminate the analysis if an output variable is not available for the current model.

Analysis time for which values are returned

Utility subroutine SMACfdUserSubroutineGetScalar returns values of the requested variable that correspond to the beginning of the current increment.
