How can I query the worst case force/stress/strain in my model out of multiple load cases?

I am trying to view 100 load cases at once and plot the critical quality for each element, as opposed to trying to visually stitch together one of many load cases.

Seems like there has to be a way to do this or HyperView needs a major upgrade to its visualization capabilities.

Thanks,

Blake

    You just need to create a 'Derived LoadCase' in the browser and use the type 'Envelope'. Envelope function shows the worst cases for each element across all the loadcases selected. Take a look at 'derived loadcases' in HyperView help for more details.

    Just complementing, it will be created a new LoadCase' With all combined results. Then you can just contour your desired results. Also there is an option into the contour panel to identify what is the critical case for a particular element, too.
