    Contour Plots

    • At Release 12.1, users have the following options whiledisplaying contour plots for results like stresses, strains,etc. (not available for DOF results eg: Deformations)

    • Unaveraged: Displays unaveraged results.

    • Averaged: Displays averaged results. (Default)

    • Nodal Difference: Computes the maximum differencebetween the unaveraged computed result (for example, total

    heat flux, equivalent stress) for all elements that share a

    particular node.

    • Nodal Fraction: Computes the ratio of the nodal difference

    and the nodal average.

    • Elemental Difference: Computes the maximum difference

    between the unaveraged computed result (for example, total

    heat flux, equivalent stress) for all nodes in an element,

    including midside nodes.

    • Elemental Fraction: Computes the ratio of the elemental

    difference and the elemental average.

    • Elemental Mean: Computes the elemental average from the

    averaged component results.

    Probing Results

    • The Probe Tool allows you to scope a result objectto a location and make that result parametric.

    • The Probe Tool can be scoped to geometry, a localcoordinate system or using a remote point.

    • The orientation of the result item can be withrespect to global or local coordinate systems.

    Existing Geometry

    • Paths Plots can be obtained on edges

    available on the geometry

     – Scope the results to the selected edge(s)

     – Retrieve the results

    Scope Results to Existing Edges

    Construction Geometry

    • Paths can be created using one of threeavailable methods:

     – Two points (each point can be a vertex, or apicked one through x,y,z picking on geometry

    or directly specified by three coordinates in thedetails window)

     – Edge (an existing geometry edge)

     – 

    X axis intersection (using a coord system –specially suited for linearized stress results)

    • Surfaces can only be created usingcoordinate systems

    Construction Geometry  – Paths

    • Examples of creating Construction Geometry using Paths

    Path Created Using Coordinate Systems

    Construction Geometry  – Paths

    • Path results may be displayed in graphical form.

    • The X axis may be displayed as path location (S) or time(transient analyses).

    Construction Geometry  – Paths

    • Snap to Mesh Feature : When Solving for linearized stresses, itis important to make sure that the path constructed passesthrough the nodes on the model (not just the geometry). Toensure that the path passes through the mesh:

    Set “Show Mesh” to “Yes”

    Right Mouse Click – Snap to Mesh Nodes

    Construction Geometry  – Surface

    • Users can define arbitrary section planes toretrieve results

     – Create a local coordinate system

     – For the surface:

    • For a Cartesian coordinate system, the surface is theintersection of the model with the X-Y plane of thecoordinate system

    • For a cylindrical coordinate system, the surface is theintersection of the model with the cylinder whose axis isthe Z axis of the coordinate system. In this case, you

    must specify the radius in the Details view of the Surfaceobject

     –  Add a standard result object

     – Set the scoping method to surface

    Linearized Results

    • The Linearized Stress results calculate membrane, bending, peak, and total stress along a

    straight line path in the Mechanical application• To Calculate Linearized Stresses

     –  Define a Path (Should not Pass Through Holes)

     –  On the Solution toolbar, click Linearized Stress, and then click the stress you want to calculate

     –  In the Details view, select the Path you have defined to calculate the linearized stress

     –  Select the coordinate system you have used for the model

     – 

    Click Solve to calculate linearized stress along the path

    Beam Results

    • Results for beams are obtained by using the Beam Tool• The following results are available:

     –  Direct Stress: The stress component due to the axial load encountered in a beamelement

     –  Minimum Bending Stress: From any bending loads a bending moment in both the localY and Z directions will arise. This leads to the following four bending stresses: Ybending stress on top/bottom and Z bending stress the top/bottom. Minimum BendingStress is the minimum of these four bending stresses

     – Maximum Bending Stress: The maximum of the four bending stresses described underMinimum Bending Stress

     –  Minimum Combined Stress: The linear combination of the Direct Stress and theMinimum Bending Stress

     –  Maximum Combined Stress: The linear combination of the Direct Stress and theMaximum Bending Stress
