I am performing a simulation on incremental sheet forming process using Al 6061 material. I have a forming limit diagram (FLD). I have input the FLD in Abaqus. Still not getting any visible damage even till very large forming height. I have just put the major and minor strain values in Abaqus. Do i need to input any more parameter to get the damage result? Can i see the damage just by looking at FLDCRT value.
I did it by just looking at the fldcrt value. When it exceeds the magnitude of 1, know that damage has occured.
This link mybe it will help you

I have sheet metal (400X400 mm and 1.2 mm in thikness) can i use shell element and it will give me good results?
