  • Plastification curve incl. element elimination (isotropic materials)

Plastification curve incl. element elimination (isotropic materials) The data may be used to describe the plastic behavior of isotropic materials in non-linear analysis, such as crash simulations. The input is defined according to the needs of Material 103 (single stress strain option) in the PAM-CRASH explicit Finite Element code, but can also be used for equivalent material laws in alternative simulation environment (see PAM-CRASH Solver Reference Manual., Material 103)
