An efficient new method has been developed to incorporate the effects of heat transfer in a liquid pool into models of heat conduction with solidification. The procedure has been added into the commercial package Abaqus [1] as a user-defined subroutine (UMATHT). Computational results of fluid ...
The developed 2D finite element is implemented in theAbaqusfinite element code through theUELuser's subroutine. The numerical simulations performed by using this new finite element show the delaying effect of the transformation latent heat on the forward and reverse phase transformations in SMA thin ...
