  1. VABS: Modeling Composite Beam-like Structures with 3D FEA Fidelity

    0.0 out of 5 stars 

    06 Feb 2021 | Contributor(s): Nikki Huang

    This presentation was given at Altair Virtual ATCx Composites: https://atcxcomposites.virtual.altair.com/. Variational asymptotic beam section (VABS) is a unique technology continuously funded by the US Army since 1988 and it has become a tool of choice in the helicopter and wind turbine...

  2. VABS: Powering Simple Beam Elements with Detailed 3D FEA Fidelity

    0.0 out of 5 stars 

    06 Jan 2017 | Contributor(s): Nikki Huang

    This presentation gives a brief introduction to VABS, a general-purpose cross-sectional analysis, which can power conventional, simple beam elements with detailed 3D FEA fidelity. 

  3. VUMAT of a Generalized Standard Continuum Damage Model

    0.0 out of 5 stars 

    13 Apr 2018 | Downloads

    Based on a recently developed generalized standard continuum damage model (CDM), this VUMAT user subroutine provides a rigorous and robust framework for implementing various damage behavior into 2D or 3D solid elements in a finite element analysis (FEA). It is designed to be used with...

  4. Woven fabrics UMAT- a coupled material model

    0.0 out of 5 stars 

    02 Aug 2017 | Downloads

    One of the advantages of woven fabrics over unidirectional prepregs is their superior formability thanks to the large shear deformation capability. There exists, however, a limit on the shear deformation of woven fabrics, namely the wrinkling. Applying tension to delay wrinkling during forming...
