Displaying von Mises Stress at Selected Nodes

You display von Mises stress at selected locations of the model.

To generate a von Mises stress graph at selected locations:

  1. In the Simulation study tree, right-click the Results folder and select Define Time History Plot.
  2. In the Time History Graph PropertyManager:
    1. Under Response, make sure that Predefined locations is selected.
    2. In the response locations list, highlight the first six vertices (Vertex 1 through Vertex 6).
  3. Under X axis, make sure that Time is selected.
  4. Under Y axis, do the following:
    1. Make sure that Stress is selected.
    2. Make sure that VON: von Mises Stress is selected for Component .
    3. Set Units to psi.
  5. Click .
    The following response graph window opens.

Congratulations! You have completed this lesson.
