Hi,

Can I confirm in user defined results, NLEPEQ represents inelastic strain whereas NLPLWK represents inelastic strain energy density?

Besides, if you are also an ABAQUS user, may I ask if NLEPEQ equivalent to CEEQ in ABAQUS and NLPLWK equivalent to CENER in ABAQUS?

Your assistance is much appreciated!

You are right! NLEPEQ represents the accumulated equivalent plastic strain and NLPLWK represents the plastic strain energy density. More User-defined results can be found here - User Defined Results for the Mechanical APDL Solver (ansys.com)

Thanks Surya
