Hi all,

I have a part that I'm loading in tension and I'd like to simulate a tensile test. I'd like to load the part at a displacement rate of 0.1 in/min until a target von mises stress value is reached. How do I go about doing this? I'm new to ASM so bare with me...

On a related note, if I run a simulation, is it possible to have a load curve genreated that plots max stress vs displacement?

Thanks,
M
