Hi.
I'm wondering if its possible to predict the ultimate loadcapacity for a general structural model using Abaqus/Standard (not explicit) and simple elastisk-plastic (isotropic hardening) materialmodels?
I've worked on models of bolted aluminiumconnections for a while and compared the force-displacement curves with the experimental ones, but I miss the peak where I can read of the ultimate load. I'm not interested in predicting how the failure develops (would need to use explicit).
Can anyone help?
