Displacement component plots


Displacement refers to the resultant movement of part geometry as a result of deformation due to applied loads and constraints. You can plot displacement in several ways:

When you select Displacement from the Result Type list in the Data Selection group, you can review the simulation results in any of the following displacement component plots:

Note:

The T1, T2, and T3 components of displacement are equivalent to the X, Y and Z axes in QY CAD.

Displacement translation data plots

You can choose displacement component plots that show translation by selecting the following displacement data types from the Result Component list in the Data Selection group.

  • Total Translation

  • T1 Translation:

  • T2 Translation:

  • T3 Translation

Displacement rotation data plots

You can choose displacement component plots that show rotation by selecting the following displacement data types from the Result Component list in the Data Selection group.

  • Total Rotation

  • T1 Rotation

  • T2 Rotation

  • T3 Rotation

Applied force data plots

You can plot the effect on part geometry of an applied load, such as a force load. Select the following data types from the Result Component list in the Data Selection group.

  • Total Applied Force

  • T1 Applied Force

  • T2 Applied Force

  • T3 Applied Force
