Definition of a new variable

Definition of a new variable

Definition of a new variable

(OP)
Dear colleagues,

I need your help!!! I'm trying to define in the post-processing step a new variable (representing a critical stress) depending on several stress components and constants. Then I would like to visualize the contour plot of this variable in the whole model and find the point (element) where it reaches the maximum value.

How can I do that?? what is the proper cae function? Abaqus users's manual is so huge that I didn't find it!

Many thanks in advance...

RE: Definition of a new variable

Hi,

I never used that option but I believe you are looking:
Abaqus/CAE User's Manual, 42.7 Creating new field output.

Regards,
Bartosz
