Hello,

Can anyone tell me what card to use to compute strain energy? My model has 2D mesh.

 

Thanks,

Datta

    Hi Datta,

    When material is deformed by external loading,energy is stored internally throughout its volume which is !nternal energy, also referred to as strain energy.

    From the time history file, T01 plot the internal energy for the part required in HyperGraph.
