Product: ABAQUS/Standard
Young's modulus = 200 × 103 N/mm2, Poisson's ratio = 0.3, Creep law: 
= A
A
, A = 10–16, A = 10–14, 
= 5.0, and 
= 0.5.
Boundary conditions:
on line AD, 
at mid-point of line AD and 
on line BC.
This is a test recommended by the National Agency for Finite Element Methods and Standards (U.K.): Test 12(b) from NAFEMS Publication Ref: R0027, “NAFEMS Fundamental Tests of Creep Behaviour,” June 1993.
The results are shown in the following table. The values enclosed in parentheses are percentage differences with respect to the reference solution.
