Abaqus - Creep Life Model using Theta Projection Method through Abaqus user subroutines

Happy to share this video abstract of my master's thesis work on "Creep modelling using Theta Projection Method through Abaqus  user-subroutines". Sincere thanks to @RG & Gas Turbine Research Establishment (GTRE),DRDO, Bengaluru for all the motivation & guidance to have completed this project.

This video abstract has the workflow for creep life prediction using SIMULIA Abaqus through a subroutine written based on Theta Projection Method & constitutive equations developed by Prof. Evans. Hoping that this will be a useful contribution to the FEA & computational mechanics community.
 

Currently I am working on creep-fatigue life modelling using Theta Projection Method & combined kinematic-isotropic plasticity. Would love to have any contributors / collaborators interested in the same.

The Fortran codes for the creep subroutine & MATLAB scripts for material constant calculation has been added in the GitHub repository link:

P.S.: No turbine blades were harmed in making of this video.
