Abaqus Johnson Cook Plugin: Free Material Calibration Tool
Download the free Abaqus Johnson Cook plugin. Automate material calibration, calculate hardening parameters, and plot stress-strain responses instantly.
Pelamis Fatigue Damage Calculator Plugin for Abaqus
The Pelamis fatigue damage calculator plugin with a user-friendly GUI that makes it easy to perform fatigue analysis of offshore steel structures. The plugin is developed by Dr. Richard Craven. After performing a load time history analysis for a set of nodes, the fatigue damage or life of that set can be calculated. For this purpose, the stress time history for the set using the ASTM rainflow cycle counting method is used, and then the S-N curves available in DNV-RP-C203 are used to calculate the damage.
Save Multiple Animations Plugin for Abaqus
Save Multiple Animations plugin allows the Abaqus user to create a unique animation file by joining different ODB files. Sometimes, due to the simulation workflow being needed, different models simulate a unique process, i.e. metal forming process. The results are, therefore, different *.odb files, and with this plug-in, the user can put them together in a unique file. The plug-in takes the current display on the viewport and applies it to all ODBs selected.
Autokeeler Plugin for Abaqus: FLC & FLD Generator
Easily generate Forming Limit Curves (FLC) and define Forming Limit Diagram (FLD) damage criteria in Abaqus. Includes comprehensive HTML & PDF documentation.
Calibrate Nitinol Material Behavior: Free Abaqus Plugin
Download the free Abaqus plugin for advanced Nitinol simulation. Automate superelastic material calibration using uniaxial tension test data instantly.

3D Hashin VUMAT Subroutine for Abaqus with Exponential Damage Evolution
BanuMusa R&D presents a 3D Hashin VUMAT Subroutine for Abaqus with Exponential Damage Evolution. Effectively describe progressive intralaminar and interlaminar damage for FRP composite laminates using this three-dimensional progressive damage model based on continuum damage mechanics (CDM). Analyze dynamic performance and failure behavior of composite structures with this nonlinear damage model. Validated by well-known papers, this VUMAT subroutine can be used in any simulation.

VUMAT Subroutine: Shear Anisotropic Modified GTN Damage Model
In this product, the modified GTN damage Abaqus VUMAT subroutine material model proposed by Gatea et al. (2017) was developed. In this material model, in addition to the original GTN model, the effects of plastic anisotropy and shear loading conditions have been added to increase the accuracy of solving the original GTN damage model. Also, the results have been verified and validated (V&V) with valid papers, and at the end, the extended damage model is compared with the Abaqus built-in GTN model known as the porous metal plasticity model.

3D Hashin USDFLD Subroutine Failure Criteria for Abaqus
The 3D Hashin USDFLD subroutine is used in Abaqus to define failure criteria for composite materials based on the Hashin failure criteria and field variables (FV) for softening behavior. It allows you to specify the failure criteria for each ply of composite material in three dimensions (3D). This subroutine is particularly useful for analyzing the failure behavior of composite structures under various loading conditions in Abaqus simulations.
It is a functionally validated USDFLD subroutine that compares results with the Chang & Lessard failure criterion available in Abaqus documentation. This code identifies four damage modes including matrix tension, matrix compression, fiber tension, and fiber compression using the elastic constants.
