12.6 Equivalent plastic strain rate

Product: Abaqus/Explicit  

Benefits: You can now output the equivalent plastic strain rate for both history and field output element output requests.

Description: A new element output variable, PEEQR, representing the equivalent plastic rate that is used for the evaluation of strain-dependent materials has been introduced. This quantity accounts for the filtering factor used to alleviate nonphysical high-frequency oscillations. This output quantity is available for both field and history element output requests.
