Main Page

This is a C++ code written to test constitutive stress updates and material models.

Finite Elements

• 8-node hexahedron

Material Models

• Linear elasticity

Ease of use

• Adaptive time stepping - time step cuts back when there is no convergence, increases when there is convergence.
• Abaqus-like input file:
  • *NODE to specify nodes
  • *ELEMENT to specify elements
  • *CLOAD and *BOUNDARY to specify stress and strain boundary conditions, respectively
  • *AMPLITUDE keyword to specify time-varying amplitude functions
