Hello! What is difference between: 
 
 1. Total Equivalent Plastic Strain 
 
 2. Equivalent of Plastic Strain 
 
 3. Equivalent of Total Strain

zhong.qin · Accepted Answer

Total Equivalent Plastic Strain is calculated from plastic strain rate; Equivalent of Plastic Strain is calculated from plastic strain tensor. Both are the measure of plastic strain. Total Equivalent Plastic Strain is likely more accurate. Equivalent of Total Strain is calculated from total strain tensor. It includes elastic strain and plastic strain.
