Need help on Derived loadsteps

Hi All,

Is it possible to get the loadcase and simulation step number details that hyperview evaluates internally to arrive at Derived loadstep by using Envelope as type.

Currently, i am able to get the counter plot from the derived envelope step. But the details of the each element stress with the corresponding loadcase and simulation step number is what i am unable to get.

Kindly help me and let me know if anyone needs more elaboration on my sentence above.

Thank you,

Regards,

Prasad Poduval

    Hi,

     

    please try to use in contour panel the switch 'Envelope trace plot' (Subcase or Simulation) (it is located below averaging).

    Then you get the internally loadcase/simulation number for the equivalent contour.

    You can do it in a second window e.g.

    • Hi Mario,

       

      Thanks for the reply.This is really useful. I have one more question. Is there any way we get simulation and subcase information as well as the corresponding stress value at in a single shot in envelope derived subcase. Getting the Envelope results are time consuming and with the option you suggested, it is only possible to get one at a time.

      I hope you got my point. I would really appreciate your views and look forward to hear from you.

       

      Thank you,

    Hi,

     

    i don't know if there is a way to get both results at the same time in one plot, because thats are to different contour plots.
