Hi All,

 

Does the MAT LAW 36 takes only plastic  strain vs stress curve or total strain vs stress curve.?

    Hi Subhu,

    The curve for /MAT/LAW36 is defined from the post yield criteria, that is from the yield point only the curve is defined. So only the plastic strain values are there in the curve.
