Hello Community members,
I am modeling the Laser Powder Bed Fusion process through the Abaqus cae for a 2-layer model on a micro-scale. I have done a thermal simulation with a fast-moving heat source and extracted the temperature profile. The scan directions through both layers are longitudinally (0-degree). With the same boundary conditions, how can I translate and rotate the basic temperature profile in the other desired angles without running another complete thermal analysis? I have searched a lot and found out this can be done by altering the isoparametric shape functions but I do not know How I should write the UELMAT subroutine code.
Can anybody help me with this problem, please?
Best Regards,
Hossein.
