Hey everyone, I’m replying to this old post because i need to do a non-linear analysis (plastic behaviour). Do you think it is trustfull to calc the plastic behaviour (Yield Stress/Plastic Strain) with this approach shared in the excel file? I want to model the stress in a component made of 1.4313 Steel with Rp0,2 = 865 MPa, Rm = 929 MPa and A = 15 % Elongation at break. ![grafik](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/prepomax/original/2X/3/3f45ec21d2d2e82361b05211b70a9bc54d580cc5.png) These are the results i got from the excel sheet what was shared. ![grafik](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/prepomax/original/2X/9/9769a46f88c9700f31c2258edbe8720ede6c8ce9.png) Thanks in advanced Eric --- _[View the full topic](https://prepomax.discourse.group/t/procedure-to-model-plastic-behavior-using-material-data-from-tensile-test/1388)._
