HI everyone,

does anyone knows how to choose the value of LENGTH RATIO in distortion control? what exactly means if I use 0.1 vs 1. Thanks for any help

best

The meaning of this parameter is explained in the documentation chapter "Section controls --> Controlling element distortion for crushable materials in Abaqus/Explicit --> Controlling the distortion length ratio". I wouldn't change it from the default value without a good reason.
