Results in .unv from Simufact Forming

I have stamping results from the supplier in .unv format from Simufact 2023.2, I am asking for help in identifying the stress/strain components in the .unv file section 2414, in what order are they (columns)? Perhaps someone has already dealt with this.

xx, yy, zz, xy, yz, xz
or
xx, xy, yy, xz, yz, zz or another?

I will used them for initial conditions.

PS.: Is there some opensource program to view such results (.unv)?

Mesh module in Salome 9.11.0 has UNV import function. Though I haven’t used it myself. And I am not sure if Salome’s license allows commercial use. Hope it helps.

Yeah, but it’s just for the mesh, not results. There’s also other free software that can handle meshes in .unv format.

I thought that ParaView could help but it doesn’t seem to support this format in any way.

Maybe this could help: GitHub - lerouxl/Simufact_UNV_reader: Python class to read UNV files produced by Simufact 2021.

This is the order
xx, xy, yy, xz, yz, zz

How did you find it out ?

It turned out that my friend from university had access to this program, he checked the order of components manually using the build-in example.

I see. It should be also documented somewhere, maybe in the " Application Tutorial" as they call it but I don’t have access to it.
