Response fields

This dialog handles the display of various FEA response fields.

To view a response field ...

1. Select the material regions to be displayed by checking the corresponding checkboxes.

2. Click the Apply button.

3. Select the desired display option: either combined or individual. The combined option displays the resulting field obtained by combining the corresponding fields across all load cases by using the MAX operator. Undeformed geometry of the part is used to show the combined fields.

4. If the individual field option is used, select the desired load case to display the corresponding fields. Deformed geometry of the part is used to show an individual field. Use the deformation scaling factor in order to set deformation magnitude as desired. If the scale factor is fixed, it will not be adjusted when switching from one load case to another. Select the displacement component to be displayed (this is useful only id the displacement field is shown).

5. Select the desired field on the scale panel control: Displacement, AM Stress, SgnAM Stress, or Eigenmode.
