Analysis procedure

Execute the FrontISTR execution command fistr1.

$ cd FrontISTR/tutorial/05_plastic_cylinder
$ fistr1 -t 4
(Runs in 4 threads.)

Analysis results

The results of the 35th substep are shown in Figure 4.5.1. A deformation diagram with the Mises stress contours added is created by REVOCAP_PrePost. A part of the analysis results log file is shown below as numerical data for the analysis results.
