How to define Johnson failure data in HyperMesh 2019?

In HyperMesh 2017 in Radioss 2017 mode, the user can define Johnson failure data in the GUI, in Hypermesh 2019, however, this seems to be not possible.  Not in Radioss 2017 mode, nor in Radioss 2019 mode.  Is the menu selection to set this up, perhaps available in another location?

If not available anymore, that is the recommended way to define such data?

Thanks for your support.

 

OK, imported a correct Radioss model into HyperMesh 2019 and found that a set of entities called "failures" exist that contains the relevant data.  Still don't know how to create an initial "failures" entity in the GUI though.

The tcl syntax is also different so scripts for HyperMesh 2017 using syntax to define material failure, do not work in HyperMesh 2019.  No error or warning is reported in that case.

 

 

Good, under "Master Model" the user can create "Failure" which adds the "failures" entity to the model tree.
