Result Types

Altair Forum User

Hi all,

 

In Hyperview, what is the difference between strain(t) , plastic strain(s) andstrain along thickness(s) in RADIOSS model?

I have material elongation as fail threshold. Which result type should i use?

 

Thanks in advance.

HI,

 

The strain is available in Tensor and scalar forms. Plastic strain is available in the scalar form for 2D and 3D elements whereas Strain in tensor is available only for 2D elements.

 

I think you should look at plastic and strain through the thickness or maybe all three...
