3.2.5 Uniaxial tests on jointed material

Product: ABAQUS/Standard  

This example illustrates the fundamental material behavior obtained with the jointed material model in ABAQUS. We construct a failure envelope for a material containing two sets of joints and subjected to uniaxial stress conditions. A complete description of the model is given in Constitutive model for jointed materials, Section 4.5.4 of the ABAQUS Theory Manual.
