Abaqus Code for a Residual Control Staggered Solution Scheme for the Phase-Field Modeling of Brittle Fracture

Abaqus UEL and UMAT subroutines for the phase-field modeling of brittle fracture. The code consists of the 3-layered system of user elements and user material subroutine producing a staggered algorithm with a residual norm based stopping criterion. The elements are 4-node full integration 2D and 8-node full integration 3D linear elements. The implementation files (source code and input files) for some examples published in the associated journal article are given. The files contain detailed explanations and instructions for users. This is an updated version of the dataset. See more info in Version_3-ChangeLog.txt For additional information, suggestions or comments, please contacts us at [e-mail]
