Examples to run oedmetric tests with Abaqus/Standard using the xMat
The following Python scripts can be used to create the input files. They have to be run in an interactive Abaqus session, e.g. by choosing File -> Run script, or in the console with
abaqus script=Xmat_Oedo_hypo_vw96.py
for Linux or from Windows with a command similar to
abaqus.bat script=Xmat_Oedo_hypo_vw96.py
(both assuming the script Xmat_Oedo_hypo_vw96.py is used).The resulting input file can be run with Abaqus/Standard and the xMat interactively or like
abaqus user=xmat.f job=Xmat_Oedo_Abaqus.inp
for Linux. For Windows the executable has an extension like
abaqus.bat user=xmat.f job=Xmat_Oedo_Abaqus.inp

Before running the simulation, make sure that Abaqus is linked with a Fortran compiler and an Abaqus environment file abaqus_v6.env is prepared for the xMat.
Also in the xMat file, ABQ_STD_CALLING has to be defined for ABAQUS_CALLING. More precisely, near the top of the file something like the following is needed:
#ifdef ABAQUS_CALLING
#define ABQ_STD_CALLING
#endif
