In this example, we will examine the results from this solved model.
In the Simulation Navigator, right-click Results,
and select Open.
In the Post-Processing Navigator, the results appear under Solution 1.
The solution contains two different loads defined in two subcases. We will display the
displacement results from subcase 1.
Expand Displacement Nodal.
We will view the displacement magnitude. Right-click Displacement Nodal,
and select Plot.
The displacement results for subcase 1 appear as a contour plot. Notice that the deformed
model geometry is scaled from the displacement results.
Next we will display the element-nodal stress results in subcase 2.
Display the Post-Processing toolbar.
From the Post-Processing toolbar, click Edit Post View.
Click the Result button.
You can also display element-nodal results with the nodal values averaged. From the Nodal
Combination list,
select Average.
Now the colors transition smoothly across element edges.
