SDV11 can provide an indication of how close the material is to failure. As SDV11 exceeds the maximum effective stress for the von Mises failure criterion, rupture will occur. SDV11 represents the matrix effective stress. When the tangent stiffness decreases, the structure is undergoing plastic deformation, or softening. SDV9 represents the tangent elastic modulus of the matrix material.

A value of 2.0 indicates the Guass point location has failed and the material stiffnesses have been degraded, allowing failure to progress to the surrounding locations. A value of 1.0 indicates an undegraded material (no failure). SDV1 represents the degradation status of the Gauss point locations. Three of the more useful SDVs are SDV1, SDV9, and SDV11. The number of SDVs available in the Field Output dialog box depends entirely on the number of SDVs requested by the Abaqus input file via the *DEPVAR keyword statement. , etc.) are listed within the Field Output dialog box along with more familiar variables such as stress (S) and strain (E). Open the Field Output dialog box by selecting Result > Field Output to view state variables computed by Advanced Material Exchange.The default variable Abaqus/Viewer plots is the von Mises stress.
