Validation using strain gauges
Altair Community Member
Updated by Raphael Schmidt
I want to validate my FE model using strain gauges. I want to compare the strains of the FE model at a point with those of the strain gauges. What is the standard way to make this comparison?
Do I compare the measured value with the strain of the nearest element or is there another way to read out a particular point of my FE model?
It is a non-linear static calculation with large deformations and composite materials.

It looks like there hasn't been an update to Virtual Gauge Director since 2022. Is this still an active/supported software?
For some reason the question alone is considered too short to submit so here is some filler.
Altair EmployeeHello Tim,
VGD is currently in hibernation mode and will not be supporting any enhancements.
Thanks
