Diplay template Contour or Element?

Diplay template Contour or Element?

(OP)
Hello all,

I did an FEA on a vehicle suspension part. When I postprocess the results. There are couple of options in the display template menu. I first selected the contour and I got about 10 ksi maximum stress and 1.19E-2 in max deflection.
Then I selected the element on the display template menu and corresponding results were 22 ksi and 1.19E-2 in.

What is the difference between the contour ans element results. I use ideas 9.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you.
