Transient Sensor Graph PropertyManager

The Transient Sensor Graph PropertyManager allows you to generate graphs of the results stored in transient sensors. Transient sensors are available for nonlinear, linear dynamic, drop test, and transient thermal analyses.

To display this PropertyManager, create a transient sensor to track the desired result of a transient study. After you run the study, right-click Results and select Graph Transient Sensors.

Response

  X axis Select time, frequency (for harmonic and random vibration studies), or a transient sensor from the menu.
Units Select a unit for the X-axis component.
  Y axis Select a transient sensor from the menu.
Units Select a unit for the Y-axis component.

X-Axis Range (Time)

(Appears if time is selected above for X-axis.)

Full Select to plot results for all time steps.
Defined

Select to plot results for a selected time interval.

Min

Minimum value of time interval

Max

Maximum value of time interval

Resolution of intermediate points

Set the resolution of intermediate time steps. For example, if you set 2, results are plotted for every other time step.

X-Axis Range (Frequency)

(Available for harmonic and random vibration studies. Appears if frequency is selected above for X-axis.)

Full Select to plot results for all frequency steps.
Defined

Select to plot results for a selected frequency interval.

Min

Minimum value of frequency interval

Max

Maximum value of frequency interval

Resolution of intermediate points

Set the resolution of intermediate frequency steps. For example, if you set 2, results are plotted for every other frequency step.
