ProductsAbaqus/Standard Elements testedDC2D4 Features testedUser subroutine to define a simple thermal constitutive behavior. Problem descriptionUser subroutine UMATHT is used to define the thermal behavior of the material for a transient heat transfer analysis. Isotropic conductivity and a constant specific heat for the material are assumed. The heat conduction in the material is governed by Fourier's law, and the gradient of the heat flux with respect to temperature is zero. The material properties—namely, conductivity and specific heat—are defined and are passed into the user subroutine via the PROPS array. Verification problem ec24dfd2.inp solves the same problem using the standard data line options to define conductivity and specific heat. Results and discussionThe results of umathtxx.inp match those obtained from ec24dfd2.inp. Input files
