Element output

Stress components

S11

Pressure between the node on the body and the slide line with which it interacts.

S12

Shear stress between the node on the body and the slide line with which it interacts.


Strain components

E11

Separation between the node on the body and the slide line.

E12

Accumulated relative tangential displacement between the node on the body and the slide line.
