Hello all,
I am having problems removing failed elements from the viewport of ABAQUS 6.7.1. I am using two materials with different failure criterion, but the failed elements can be still seen on the viewport. Had it been one material, I could have used the Result manager to remove elements, but here I am not sure how to do this.

Anyone, any suggestion is more than welcome.

Just for clarification, ABAQUS v6.7 has a new feature that allows for automatic element removal of failed elements during post processing. To use this feature the simulation needs to save a STATUS variable to the output history database.
