We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately, I use Shell Elements for my simulation, so the beam Elements does not work. What I have found out. I can add a history database and save the elout. The file contains the strain in xx,yy,zz and xy,yz and zx. Can I somehow calculate plastic strain from this using a formula? Unfortunately, I have not found anything suitable.
