Hi
Does anyone know how to change the von mises stress legend to be able to view deflection in an FEA  in solidworks?
Thanx

RE: Viewing displacement in an FEA

What FEA package are you using?  Is this CosmosWorks?  Please give us more details so we can help you.

Do you trust your intuition or go with the flow?

Actually, I'm looking this up for someone and the program is CosmosWorks.

RE: Viewing displacement in an FEA

If you are using cosmosExpress, you cannot find deflection.

If this is cosmosWorks, you view deflection by going to the deflection results.

I have a feeling you friend is using CosmosExpress which comes with solidworks.

RE: Viewing displacement in an FEA

Actually, CosmosExpress now does show deflection.
