    Plastic Strain Data Input

    Hi Gents, Thanks for your responses. The strain values I have are 0.001 in/in elongation. For example, this is the data I have: Stress (MPa) / Strain (10^-3 in/in) 0 / 0 12.0 / 0.219 26.0 / 0.417 and so on... From graph, the yield...

    Plastic Strain Data Input

    Hello All, I am trying to input the plastic strain data into Abaqus for my aluminium material. Now I know the Yield Stress is in MPa but what is the Plastic Strain value? Is it the percentage of elongation? Thanks for any help

    MIL-HDBK-5H Specimen Size

    Hello, I am trying to extract the percentage of elongation to put into Abaqus for a simulation of plastic failure. Now I have found a good site (see below) which allows me to extract accurate values from the graphs within MIL-HDBK-5H however this graph plots (Stress vs Strain (in./in.))...
