Hi, Could someone help explain how is possible to get the von Mises failure criteria activated? I tried a CCX nonlinear study with plastic material and I cannot select any failure criteria, per image attached.
It's not available for CCX, sorry. However, all it does is show the factor of safety in the solution. You can make that by hand using a formula, or get von Mises stress by adding it to the solution, or yield stress for plasticity by defining a plastic material type.
