Johnson-Cook Plugin for Abaqus

Overview

By Johnson-Cook Plugin for Abaqus, standard handbook data is used to determine Johnson-Cook hardening parameters. Just enter the relevant values of Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, yield stress, offset strain, ultimate stress, and strain at the failure to calculate Johnson-Cook constants of A, B, and n.

Johnson-Cook Plugin for Abaqus

If you press the “Yes” button, the plug-in runs a one-element model using this Johnson-Cook material and plots the stress-strain response.
