You can list stress, displacement, strain components after running your study. For frequency and buckling studies, you can list mode shapes. For dynamic studies you can also list acceleration and velocity components.
To access this PropertyManager, right-click Results and select List Stress, Displacement, Strain.

Component
|
Component |
Select one of the result components to list:
|
|
Units |
Select the units of the component. |
|
Mode Shape |

Advanced Options
|
Plane, Axis or Coordinate System |
Select a reference plane, an axis, or a coordinate system to list stress. Used for directional components only. |
|
Nodes |
Lists nodal stresses |
|
Element's center |
Lists element stresses
or strains at element center. |
|
Element's nodes |
Available only if Range is selected. Lists the normal and shear stresses at the nodes of each element defined in Range. |
|
Shell Face |
Available for shell and mixed mesh models only.
- Top (total stresses or strains at the top face)
- Bottom(total stresses or strains at the bottom face)
