The Stress Hot Spot Diagnostics functionality is improved with the
addition of Stress Singularity detection
algorithm.
When the Stress Hot
Spot diagnostics tool detects regions of the model that exhibit the
highest stress gradients, you can apply local mesh controls to selected geometric edges,
like sharp edges, in the hot spot regions. The improved algorithm with the addition of
mesh refinement filters stress singularities from the stress hot spot regions.
The enhanced stress hot spot diagnostics tool allows you to:
- Select edges to apply mesh controls and change the mesh size.
- Refine the mesh locally up to three levels.
- View stress variations across different mesh levels on the selected edges to
confirm the presence of stress singularities in your model.
