Description

Documentation for IC MAGE's Universal Model Interface for PLAXIS (v2.0). The Universal Model Interface for PLAXIS (UMIP) is a platform designed to facilitate the implementation of constitutive models into PLAXIS. Currently, the only integration scheme available for the constitutive relationship is a Modified Euler substepping scheme with automatic error control.
