Hello,

 

In Hyperview, is there a way to visualize the principal stress axis? I was told that based on Principal min and max stresses, and shear stresses, one could find principal stress axis orientation. Is there a way to do this in Hyperview?

    Hi,

    try the Tensor plot. You can plot the P1 to check the Max Principal.
