Hello all

I am wondering if I am able to add initial strain in ABAQUS? I know I can use initial stress from predefined field. How about initial strain? Can I do that in ABAQUS? any work around?

Thanks
Lee
 
Only stress or plastic strain. But you could also use the import functionalitg where the deformed mesh is transferred with the whole material state.
