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.

Hi,

Stress will be imported for time 0 when you use INISTATE to import stresses. Therefore, the stresses returned to their initial state after the second model ran for one second. It is acting like a compressed spring at time zero and got uncompressed till time 1 second as there is no load acting on it.

Thanks,

Akshay Maniyar
