1D deformations

The 1D deformations command serves for displaying deformations on selected 1D members. (not only on Beams, but also on Ribs, Tendons and Integration strips/members)

Usage

  1. Calculate a FEM analysis of the model
  2. Go to Tree > Results > Beams > 1D deformations
  3. Set properties of the command to specify mainly:
    • selection of 1D members where the results are evaluated
    • load type from which the results are derived
    • specific result value from the available list to be visualized
  4. Click on [Refresh] action button to display the results

Note: To get general overview about how to work with Result service and its commands, see Results/Basics.
