in your drawing.
To perform a shaft calculation
1 In the Shaft Calculation dialog box, click the Moments and Deformations
button.
2 In the Select Graph dialog box, specify:
Bend: Bending Moment in Y - Axis, Deflection in Y - Axis
Torsion: Torsion Moment in X - Direction
Stresses: Result Bending Stress

3 Click OK, and then respond to the prompts as follows:
Specify insertion point:
Select an appropriate point to the right of the shaft
The result block and the deflection and torsion moment graphs are
inserted.
4 Close the Shaft Calculation dialog box.
