Abstract
This work concerns mainly the finite element (FE) implementation of polyconvex incompressible hyperelastic models. A user material subroutine (UMAT) has been developed and can be utilized to define the aforementioned material behaviors in the FE system ABAQUS. The subroutine is written using a novel strategy in order to maximally simplify the relations for the analytical material Jacobian (MJ). The UMAT code is attached in the appendix. The developed subroutine allows to significantly decrease the time of computations and to avoid possible convergence difficulties. The structure of the code enables modifications which may lead to a rheological, damage or growth models, for instance.
