  Hi, I ran the optimization solver using optistruct with basic point loads as a test. However when i apply the display von mises stress on simple averaging method, there is nothing. It seems to be running fine with no errors so I don't understand whats happening. see picture attached<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>safasgfsdg.png

 

 output file spit out this:

 

1 MaxDisp                  1240140    0.00000    
   0    1 MaxStress                      0    0.00000    
   0    2 MaxDisp                       60   0.282330E-01
   0    2 MaxStress                  31836   -496.786

    Have you tried without any averaging method?

     

    If you can you check whether HV displays contour without any averaging method?
