This an Abaqus user material subroutine UMAT in fortran language of a new 3D strain based constitutive model for shape emory alloys developped by Ben Jaber and coauthors in 2008 [1] and improved recently by Ben Jaber 2014 [2]
This subroutine in Fortran language allows users to simulate thermomechanical behaviors of SMA products. More details about material parameters and internal variables are availables in The file UMAT_SMA_benjaber_ET_AL_ReadMe.pdf .
