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.

Hello John,

You don't need to specify both elastic and plastic properties under the Bilinear Isotropic Hardening. The entry "Active Table" is ready-only and is re-named to "Tangent Modulus Type" since 2024R2. Using the Bilinear Isotropic Hardening model, you only need to provide the initial yield stress and the slope of the stress-plastic strain curve. Elastic properties are defined earlier under Isotropic Elasticity (row 4 in your screenshot).
