Objective
The objective of this seminar is to provide an introductory overview of the utility and functionality of user subroutines for both Abaqus/Standard and Abaqus/Explicit. In this class you will be presented with the overall structure of the user subroutine feature including the functional relationship to the analysis codes, subroutine construction, communication issues, code validation and operational procedures. Numerous examples will be presented to enhance the discussion.
Topics that will be covered include:
- Overview of user subroutines
- User subroutine structure
- Operational considerations
- Defining loads, fields, and boundary conditions with user subroutines
- User defined material modeling
- Customizing contact behavior with user subroutines
Who Should Attend
This course is recommended for engineers with experience using Abaqus who wish to expand their capabilities with Abaqus through user subroutine development. Familiarity with FORTRAN is helpful.
