Master PEEQ: Accurate FEA Modeling Now

Understanding PEEQ in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) PEEQ, or equivalent plastic strain, is a crucial parameter in Finite Element Analysis (FEA), particularly for processes like metal forming. It quantifies the permanent deformation a material undergoes during loading. Unlike elastic strain (which recovers upon unloading), plastic strain represents permanent shape change. PEEQ provides a single, cumulative measure of this permanent deformation, making it useful for assessing potential failure points in a design....
