Plot force and force displacement vs time

Helo everyone.

I have a force define as action/reaction and line of action translational:

This force will be applied during a define displacement. Once the defined displacement will be reached the force will not be applied anymore.

In order to check the correctness of the code I would like to plot the force applied and displacement of the two markers vs time.

The goal is to check if the force stops as defined in the code.

Should I define an output command in order to plot it?

Best regards.

    Hi Jose Antonio,

    You can define an output request for force. While plotting, instead of time in X Type, use the displacement of marker so that you can plot a force displacement curve.
