Can you please let me know if there is a way to export unit vectors along the eigen directions or scaled vectors representing the total principal stresses?  I also would like to know if there is a way to output eigen vectors of plastic strain rate.  We are using Mat-18, Johnson-Cook.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
The real goal is to create streamlines of these eigen vectors. We used to obtain them from ABAQUS\/CAE and had to then sort neighboring vectors to make this meaningful.  However, looking at the vectors in LS-PREPOST they seem to already be sorted, at least in the region of most interest to use.  Is there a way in LS-PREPOST to directly create streamlines of these vector fields?  I ask because I am not familiar with the fluids post-processing and believe this should be easily doable.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Or should we look into LS-Taurus (is it even available, or work?) or some other software?<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Thanks,<\/div>\n
