Graphing von Mises Stresses

You plot design history graphs to view the variation of a constraint or a design variable with the scenario number.

In the left frame of the Design Study tab, right-click the Results and Graphs folder and select Define Design History Graph.
You cannot plot a local trend graph for an Evaluation Design Study with High quality (slower) setting for the study quality. For more information about graphs available for different settings in a Design Study, see SOLIDWORKS Simulation Help: Design Study Outcomes.
In the PropertyManager, under Y-Axis, select Constraint.
For Constraint, select Stress1.
Under Extra Location, select Workflow Sensitive 1 and select the six vertices from the selection box.
Click .
The program plots the variation of the maximum value of the von Mises stress and its value at the six vertices with the scenario number.
