Crystal plasticity
« on: May 22, 2018, 11:30:27 PM »
Hello,

I want to do a Crystal Plasticity Finite Element simulation of a grain using FEAPpv. Is it possible?
If yes, can you tell me what are the steps that need to be carried out?

I am new to FEAPpv and this forum. Please pardon me if this question is inappropriate.

Thanks a lot in advance

FEAPpv does not have a built in crystal plasticity model.  You will have to write your own routines for this.
Use the user interface umatiX.f and umatlX.f (both found in the user folder) to connect your implementation
with FEAPpv.  You can follow the instructions in the FEAP programmers manual -- FEAP itself is slightly different
in some respects but the basics are quite close.
