The FailStrain object defines parameters for strain-based failure measures.
import material mdb.models[name].materials[name].elastic.failStrain import odbMaterial session.odbs[name].materials[name].elastic.failStrain
This method creates a FailStrain object.
mdb.models[name].materials[name].elastic.FailStrain session.odbs[name].materials[name].elastic.FailStrain
Required argument
A sequence of sequences of Floats specifying the items described below.
Optional arguments
A Boolean specifying whether the data depend on temperature. The default value is OFF.
An Int specifying the number of field variable dependencies. The default value is 0.
