*SOLUBILITY
18.23 *SOLUBILITY: Specify solubility.
This option is used to define the solubility for a material diffusing through a base material. It must be used in
conjunction with the *DIFFUSIVITY option.

*DIFFUSIVITY
Optional parameter:
DEPENDENCIES
Set this parameter equal to the number of field variable dependencies included in the definition of the
solubility. If this parameter is omitted, it is assumed that the solubility is constant or that it depends
only on temperature. See “Specifying field variable dependence” in “Material data definition,”
Section 16.1.2 of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual, for more information.
Data lines to define solubility:
First line:
1. Solubility. (Units of PLF
−1/2
.)
2. Temperature, .
3. First field variable.
4. Second field variable.
5. Etc., up to six field variables.
Subsequent lines (only needed if the DEPENDENCIES parameter has a value greater than six):
1. Seventh field variable.
2. Etc., up to eight field variables per line.
Repeat this set of data lines as often as necessary to define the solubility as a function of temperature
and other predefined field variables.
