Visualize resultant force vector of a node

Hi rea2

You can check this option in Hyperview

Select vector option and set the result type to forces.

select the rigid body component and click apply. This will show the resultant vector value and direction in real time.

Thank you so much! That's what I also found, but I only have displacement as a possible result type, no contact forces. I also exported Von Mises, Pressure and Energy as a result type, but they are not available there (probably since they are not vectors?). How do I get contact forces? I don't find it as an option in the ENG_ANIM_ELEM card.

Hi rea2

Go to Analysis > control cards > click next and select ENG_ANIM_VECT

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

select ENG_ANIM_VECT and then tick on CONT for contact forces.

Thank you! I was able export the forces but couldn't visualize the vector on the master node yet. Still trying - but thank you for your help!

Hi 

If possible please share the .h3D file. i will also have a try

So is this possible with an LS-Dyna input file?
