Output results????

Output results????

Output results????

(OP)
I have modeled four objects(1,2,3,4). Object 1 and 2 are a perfect match (connected) while Object 3 and Object 4 are a perfect match (connected).  Object 2 is placed in contact with object 3.  Material Properties are:

Object 1 - Orthotropic
Object2 - Isotropic
Object 3 - Isotropic
Object 4 - Orthotropic

Compressive(Tension)uniform pressure force is applied to object one while object 4 is fixed. The range of pressures used to analyze was 0.5MPa - 10MPa.  The problem is that the outputs(von mises) are the same for all different applied pressures.  can anyone suggest why this is so.  Have I done something wrong with the analysis.  Also I tried applying a ridiculous pressure of 5000MPa and the von mises were different than the other results.  

Anther question:  How do I view other results other than Von mises.  I have check marked of contact pressure, energy, etc:   But where can I view this info?

Thanks

RE: Output results????

To see all the Field / History variables, which you requested to be output,  you use
ABAQUS/CAE -> Main menu -> Result -> Field Output or History Output.
