Evaluate Results
Check displacements, stresses, and reaction forces to confirm plausibility.
Use "Select Scene" to switch between result views: geometry, displacement, strain, and stress.
What to look for
- Displacements — are they a realistic magnitude?
- Stresses — are they below the yield strength? where do the maxima occur?
- Reaction forces — does the sum match the applied loads?
- Symmetry — for a symmetric model: are the results symmetric?
Quick check
- Deformation in a realistic order of magnitude?
- Reaction forces = applied loads (∑F ≈ 0)?
- No unrealistic stress peaks at singularities?
