    How to use Tresca yield criteria for plasticity?

    By default I assume that the ABAQUS uses the von Mises yield criteria when plasticity parameters are added to the material properties. Is there a way I could enforce the Abaqus to use the Tresca https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yield_surface#Tresca_yield_surface criterion? I am struggling with it...

    Plasticity (stress(strain)) interpolation in Abaqus

    The stress-strain data for a plastic deformation is given in table.   I have two questions related to how that table is treated: - How is data interpolated? Is it piecewise linear or something else? - What if the plastic strain is larger than the maximum plastic strain provided in the table? I...
