Shows the shrinkage model that the flow simulation uses.
The following options are available:
Selected when there is no shrinkage data available for the material. In this case, the Fill+Pack analysis predicts the residual stress values within in the part. The predictions are based on the flow and thermal history during the molding cycle.
The default when shrinkage testing is performed on the material. This model is the most accurate because it is obtained by correlating actual tested shrinkage values with Fill+Pack analysis predictions.
Selected for materials where the CRIMS model is found to not adequately describe the shrinkage behavior of the material.
