Hello Jorgen,

Could you please show me how to code shear components in UMAT to define the stiffness matrix for a Neo-hookean model,
the full expression for this matrix Cijkl= f( bbar) is given by the abaqus help. But i didn't found the same expression for the shear components , for example C(1,6), C(4,6).
Thanks for your replay,

Lamia

I don't quite understand. If you found a full expresion, don't you then also have the shear components?
