Testing for elements of family CGAX

[sai-kalai]

I want to test the material model for axisymmetric elements with twist in a static/standard analysis by using the UMAT wrapper.
What are the requirements for carrying out a valid test on a specific element?
I am completely new to the UMAT/VUMAT world, but my current research would benefit from a reliable material model on these elements.
Thanks!

In my attempt of running the test cases I came across the following issue.
It appears that the compiler is unable to find certain mpi names.
Other UMATs run without problem, for example this one.

Thanks for any information

Thanks for any information

I have the same issue, have you managed to solve it?

[sai-kalai]

Hi, thanks for the message, sadly no

[catwithout]

I saw in a paper that it is possible to use MPI functions in VUMAT, but it has not been implemented. Have you solved the problem? If so, could you help me? Thank you

[sai-kalai]

Hi catwithout, thanks for your comment
Can you please link the article?
My intuition is that there are several fortran subroutines that need implementation for this specific element.
I have stopped paying attention to this project for now; however, i intend on working on it at some point this year.
If we can solve this, that would be soo cool!

[catwithout]

Hi sai-kalai. The author told me: he changed the "env" file so that the mpi runtine can be called. But he forgot the details. I tried some ways, that failed. If you have some successful ways, please tell me. Thank you.

Hello Bro,deletion /free or application part two in CompDam-env file could solve error LNK2019-2001.
But new errors will arise.

[JalockQ]

I have already solved this problem, but why don't the experts in this project share the solutions?
