I want to write a VUMAT subroutine for progressive impact damage. In a failure criterion, there is a characteristic length. How can I calculate this?

A friend told me to write the element length, but if I want to change element size, what should I do then? Should I use solid element? There is not a description of a characteristic element length for it in abaqus.
