Abstract
The software ABAQUS, which is developed and supported by HKS Inc. is currently one of the most powerful nonlinear finite element codes. The ABAQUS Unified FEA product suite offers powerful and complete solutions for both routine and sophisticated engineering problems covering a vast spectrum of industrial applications, which specialize in geometry and material nonlinear problems. Best-in-class companies are taking advantage of ABAQUS Unified FEA to consolidate their processes and tools, reduce costs and inefficiencies, and gain a competitive advantage. ABAQUS includes many different kinds of material models such as the Drucker-Prager criterion, Mohr-Coulomb criterion and Cambridge constitutive models for use in geotechnical problems (Hibbitte et al., 2002; Zhuang, 1988).
This chapter was contributed by Prof. Wawng JQ, North China Electric Power University, Beijing, China and Prof. Lu Feng, Institute of Water Resources and Hydropower Research, Beijing, China.
