Description: User subroutine VUMULLINS is now available in Abaqus/Explicit to define the damage behavior associated with Mullins effect in rubberlike materials and elastomeric foams. This feature provides functionality equivalent to that of user subroutine UMULLINS previously available in Abaqus/Standard. The subroutine provides users with access to solution-dependent state variables as well as temperature and field variables. In addition to defining the damage variable, you can also define the strain energy dissipation due to damage as well as a criterion for material failure and element deletion.
