Hi,
Is the plastic strains plots in hyperview is the %plastic strain or just a number.
If the maximum plastic strain is say 0.023, does it mean the plastic strain as 0.023%. if it is not how do I convert to percentage value?
Plastic Strains (s) is the only the strain in the plastic section of the stress-strain curve.Could you let us know the solver you are using?
Hi Kamalakar Rao,
Strain is a ratio of Change in length/original length. The same times 100 gives the percentage.
The result depends on your input. If your input is in %, the result output will be %
@Rahul R I am using Optistruct to analyse and i want (Total Strain,%, Max. Principal ) in my report. Cld yu please let me know what to call in case control section and how to do posting??
Thanks,

you can do pretty much anything in the legend options in HV.
You can multiply your solver result by a scale factor (100) and in the 'Edit Legend' you can change title, and much more of your legend.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
by the way, in OptiStruct you need to request STRAIN(H3D) under GLOBAL_OUTPUT_REQUEST.
And them you will see Strains in the result file. P1 Major would be the Maximum Principal Strains.
