Defining calibration behaviors

This section describes how to extract material behavior constants from calibration data sets.

You can also add support for custom calibration behaviors, which appear as new options in the Calibration Behavior dialog box. For more information, see "Creating custom material calibration plug-ins in Abaqus/CAE" in the Dassault Systèmes Knowledge Base at http://www.3ds.com/support/knowledge-base.

Abaqus/CAE assumes that the material is fully incompressible when it calculates material properties and plots material response curves from test data other than the volumetric test.
