Minimum Principal Stress
The minimum principal stress acts normal to the plane in which shear stress
is zero. It helps you understand the maximum compressive stress induced in
the part due to the loading conditions.
Deformation
The deformation results show you the deformed shape of your model after
the solution. The color contours show you the magnitude of deformation
from the original shape. The color contours correspond to the values defined
by the color bar.
Safety Factor
Safety factor shows you the areas of the model that are likely to fail under
load. The color contours correspond to the values defined by the color bar.
Frequency Modes
You can view the mode plots for the number of resonant frequencies that you
specified in the solution. The modal results appear under the Modes folder in
the browser. When you double-click a frequency mode, the mode shape is
displayed. The color contours show you the magnitude of deformation from
the original shape. The frequency of the mode shows in the legend. It is also
available as a parameter.
Animate Results
Use the Animate Results tool to visualize the part through various stages of
deformation. You can also animate stress, safety factor, and deformation under
frequencies.
