Plot system energy
I am running an impact simulation and i want to plot the energy of the system and its components (strain, translational kinetic, rotational kinetic, hourglass, etc). I am using radioss block as the solver. So far i have managed to find how to do it for individual elements but not for parts or globally (system).
My question is the following. Do i need to specify some kind of output request for that cause or is it done automatically and available somewhere in Hyperview?
To get a sense of what i want to plot i am attaching an image from the pipe impact tutorial. The plot on the bottom of the image is what i want to have.

Thanks for your time.

Found it. If anyone is also wondering this is how it is done:
Tools -> Create Cards -> TH -> Part
To set the options appropriately see (http://www.altairhyperworks.com/hwhelp/Altair/hw12.0/help/hwsolvers/rd_th.htm)
