Displaying yield and failure surfaces

(OP)
Hi
Is there any way where one can display the yield surfaces and/or failure surface.
Thanks

RE: Displaying yield and failure surfaces

For elastic stresses above yield, just reset the maximum Von Mises contour limit to yield.

RE: Displaying yield and failure surfaces

If you use an elastic, plasticmaterial, you can use the Flag variable AC YIELD. Since it's a flag you can set the number of colors to two an use a quiltplot in the contour options.
