Hello, everybody.

I've done a "coupled temp-displacement" simulation.

From "field output" of visualization, i can only see the results of LE (logarithmic strain componenets at integration points).

But i want the results of E (strain).

How can i change LE to E?

thanks.
 
If you use NLGEOM=ON (i.e. finite strain formulation) ABAQUS uses LE as the kinematic strain measure.

What do you understand by strain ?

If you understand infinitesimal strain then , if appropriate, set NLGEOM=OFF and request E.
