How to plot 1D Results on 3D Geometry
Hello all,
I am working on a simulation of a pipe. I would like to check whether the expansion or compression of the entire pipeline leads to unacceptably high stresses. For this purpose I have extracted the centerline of the pipe and meshed it with 1D elements. Using the boundary conditions, I fixed one end of the line and shifted the other by a specified value. As cross-sectional area I have given accordingly the inner and outer diameter of the pipe.
Is there a possibility in the post to transfer the results obtained with 1D elements to the 3D pipe geometry?
I think this is necessary to see the real maximum stresses at the outer and inner radius?
Thank you very much and best regards
Marvin

You could use the Beam Stress tool
