Hi all,

In ABAQUS, ELCD parameter is defined as: Total energy dissipated in the element by creep, swelling, and viscoelasticity. I have checked the ABAQUS manuals but could not find the equation that is used to calculate this parameter.
Does anyone know how ELCD is calculated in ABAQUS?

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
