    Hi,

    Please note that in Radioss 13.0 we have new options for LAW58.

    • non-linear stress/strain curve input for direction 1, 2, and shear
    • different FLEX parameters for different directions
    • fully integrated membranes for law58 to avoid hourglasing

    I have attached userguide of Mat LAW58 for your refernce.

     

    Regards

    Ram,

     

    There are no engine parameters in your model file. Please define engine parameters and check.

    Hi,

    Please check the output block defined in the model.

    The error says that no variable is defined  for the Rail /TH group.

    Keep Num_Variables as 1 and give the variable as DEF so that all default outputs will be extracted.
