Shins Karthikeyan, Yes, it is possible to create different field outputs for each material and display them in a single contour plot in ABAQUS.

In ABAQUS, both in input and in GUI, you can create a new field output for each material using the FIELD OUTPUT command. For example, currently, I am requesting output for Concrete in the element-based approach, while for global response, I am defining a field output request for the whole domain of the FEA model. Doing so has the advantage of avoiding unnecessary warnings and also reducing the size of the odb file. The commands are as shown.:

** FIELD OUTPUT: Global Response

**

*Output, field

*Node Output

U,

*Element Output, directions=YES

S,

**

** FIELD OUTPUT: Concrete Damage

**

*Element Output, elset=Cube, directions=YES

PE, PEEQ

By following these steps, you can create different field outputs for each material and display them in a single contour plot in ABAQUS. You need to do post processing for merging these interpretations for specific time interval. However, there is one limitation: merging displacement contours with stress contours, for example, doesn't make sense in a single output. Do you understand what I mean?

Shins Karthikeyan The plots should be created in different display groups (Tools->Display Group) with the same Max and Min limits in Contour Options and then overlaid (View->Overlay Plot…: Create…)

The ability to customize field outputs for individual materials in a bimaterial specimen tension test simulation depends on the specific simulation software you are using. Generally, advanced simulation software that supports finite element analysis (FEA) and multiphysics simulations often provides options for customizing and post-processing field outputs. Examples of such software include Abaqus, ANSYS, COMSOL Multiphysics, and others.

Here's a general approach you might take:

Remember that the specific steps and options may vary based on the software you are using. Consult the user manual, documentation, or support resources provided by the simulation software for detailed instructions on how to customize and display field outputs for individual materials in a bimaterial specimen tension test simulation. If you have a specific software in mind, feel free to provide that information for more tailored guidance.

In simulations using finite element analysis (FEA) software, such as ABAQUS, it is generally possible to customize field outputs for individual materials in a bimaterial specimen tension test simulation. This allows you to extract and visualize specific results or quantities of interest for each material in the model.
