A user material interface for the Peridynamic Peridigm framework

User materials (UMAT) in finite element codes allow the researchers or engineers to apply their own material routines. Simple software interfaces are specified represent behavior software. In order use these already existing and often validated models Peridynamics a UMAT interface is presented. It allows simplified of routines peridynamic framework Peridigm. The based on Abaqus definition integration Fortran directly into Peridigm eliminates need for redevelopment reprogramming from classical continuum mechanics theory. addition, same model implementations applicable as well simulations. This opens up new possibilities analysis, verification comparison. With this many can be reused applied progressive failure analysis. source code stored GitHub repository.
