Displacement - Length graph

Hello,

 

I have conducted a topology optimisation on several bumper beam models (attached) and would like to plot the curves for displacement and stresses variations across the length of the beam on the same graph.

 

I have managed to plot the the displacements before and after optimisation of one of the beams beam, however I was wondering if I can do this for multiple models on the same graph. Also, I want to change the name of the legends and can not find how to do that.

 

I have tried to plot them in hyperview and hypergraph but could not work it out. Can anyone please guide me through this ?

 

Thanks

 

Regards,

Awais

    HI ayousaf50,

     

    If you want to overlay results from different models on same HyperGraph window using create cruves from HyperView, try this:

     

    1) Plot your 1st Graph. This will open a HyperGraph in new window.

    2) Load another model in HyperView and while plotting curve for new model, make sure you select Existing Plot for place on option,

     

    this create new curve on existing curve on HyperGraph.

    DO you want to rename the legend in HyperView?

    Thank you Prakash, I managed to get the curves in the same graph now.

    Yes,

    You see in the sample file, currently the legends are named as Node Path ID. I wanted to rename them for respective models (for instance Iteration 1, Iteration 2, etc...)

     

    Anyways, I managed to find how to do that as well. There is an option to define curves where I can rename the curve.
