*NO TENSION

Introduce a tension failure theory (compression only material).

This option is used to modify the elasticity definition so that no tensile stress is allowed. It can be used only in conjunction with the ELASTIC option.

This page discusses:

Optional parameters

CUT OFF STRESS
This parameter is available only in Abaqus/Explicit.

Set this parameter equal to the value of the cutoff stress, σ t c u t o f f . The default value is based on a small fraction (10–4) of the dilatational wave modulus of the material.

There are no data lines associated with this option.
