Accessing amplitude parameters in a user subrouting in abaqus

Accessing amplitude parameters in a user subrouting in abaqus

Accessing amplitude parameters in a user subrouting in abaqus

(OP)
Hi all,

I have a model in abaqus in which I have applied a cyclic pressure load using the periodic amplitude option. I am writing a usdfld subroutine in which I need to access the value of circular frequency in my code. Is it possible to do that somehow in this subroutine, or would I have to write another subroutine DLOAD and specify loading through that? In the latter case, can the variables in the domain of one subroutine be accessed in another subroutine?

Thanks!

If you are using only 1CPU in simulation you can do it with COMMON block in FORTRAN.
Please notice all COMMON blocks has to start with letter k in Abaqus.
See Abaqus documentation: Abaqus Analysis User's Manual, 18.1.1 User subroutines: overview, Naming convention.
