Description
coid
Command ID
entype
Entity type
enid
Entity identification number
$\Delta t^{erode}$
Time step size below which elements are eroded
$\varepsilon_{geo}^{erode}$
Effective deviatoric geometric strain above which elements are eroded
$\varepsilon_v^{erode}$
Volumetric strain above which elements are eroded
$\varepsilon_{eff}^{p,erode}$
Effective plastic strain above which elements are eroded
Description
This command is used to specify element erosion citeria for one or multiple parts. Note that erosion parameters defined directly in PART have a higher priority.
