*SRLX: Stress Relaxation Temperature

*SRLX

r1, [r2]

r1: r*8: Stress relaxation temperature, in °C.

This optional material property is used to relax stresses during processing due to material dependent phenomena.

• When the temperature exceeds r1, all elastic, plastic, and thermal stress and strain components are set to zero.
• If *SRLX is defined outside the *MATE block, the same value is used for all materials.

Best Practices: This option should be used for mechanical analyses of Ti-6Al-4V with r1 set to the stress relaxation temperature of 690° C.
