I would like to plot thickness distribution of formed part using Continuum elements in Abaqus...
Hello dear Elangovan.
I thik that you search an equivalent of Sth in shell domain , for the 3D model in abaqus simulations.
There is no equivalent output of thickness for 3D mesh , but you can built a method :
1 : as a normal distance between 2 outer sides of continum part, finer mesh gives accurate thickness .
2 : Calculation from mesh sizes and normal strain thickness output.
3: Developping a python file tracking alghorthm of normal distance.
Best wishes.
Thanks Selmi

For sheet metal forming, the forming limit curve is the failure criteria. Do we have similar criteria for forging, coining simulation?
