Graph Plastic Zone
Graph Plastic Zone
(OP)
Hello,
I need to compare the plastic zone size and shape at a notch at different applied loads. I can see the plastic zone quite clearly in results but I would like to be able to graph the shape of it in excel i.e graph the outline of the plastic zone.
Does anyone have any ideas how this might be possible.
Thanks

The model is elastic and zone plasticity is anything abobe yield stress. I can create a line contour plots with just a single contour which is at the yield stress which is therefore the plastic zone shape. I had hoped there might be a way of exporting a line contour plot to excel.
