I need...

    Imposing an initial strain or stress field

    I'm trying to break an analysis into multiple jobs between which I want to alter the stress and strain fields from the end of one job and then somehow impose these as an initial state in a consecutive job. Is it possible to impose an intial strain field by a user subroutine or by other mean ...
