EasyPBC : ABAQUS Plugin Tool for Periodic RVE Homogenisation

EasyPBC is an open-source ABAQUS CAE interface plugin coded in python to estimate the effective elastic properties of a periodic representative volume element. The software allows the user to fully generate a part, mesh it, and use analysis data after calculating the homogenised properties all within ABAQUS CAE user interface without the need to use a third-party software. Additionally, EasyPBC is capable of capturing geometrical variations that commonly used theoretical methods are incapable of. The tool is available for free – for more details, please go to: https://www.researchgate.net/project/... or email sadik.omairey[at]gmail.com
