Why Are Certain Objects in a Model Not Displayed?

  • Date: February 13, 2019
  • By: brent
  • Categories: Model Visualization & Display
Using the Parts class to organize objects into a single named entity is very useful for pre-processing and post-processing tasks, as well as defining solution configurations and organizing object displays. However, it can cause some objects to be suppressed from the Model View.

Why Do Small Features Sometimes Appear Distorted?

  • Date: May 24, 2018
  • By: brent
  • Categories: Model Visualization & Display
For models located many units away from the Global origin (0,0,0), or in general when multiple length scales (e.g. 0.01->1000 units) in the model display are rendered, small features such as Boolean-unioned crack surface meshes may appear to be distorted or "wavy".

How Do I Use Sets to Select and View Groups of Elements and Other Objects?

  • Date: November 22, 2017
  • By: brent
  • Categories: Model Visualization & Display
In StressCheck, sets are used to group objects by type (such as elements). This is similar to the Group concept used in other FEA. Sets are designed to allow you to view model input and results limited to a group of objects instead of viewing all objects of that particular type.

What Is the Midsides Input, and What Does It Control?

  • Date: November 22, 2017
  • By: brent
  • Categories: Model Visualization & Display
The Midsides input field affects both the resolution of the display of element edges in the model, and the resolution of results extraction. It is also found when performing h-Discretization to describe how many times an element will be "split".
