ANSYS Workbench bug? -> solutions turn to "spikey" models

ANSYS Workbench bug? -> solutions turn to "spikey" models

ANSYS Workbench bug? -> solutions turn to "spikey" models

(OP)
Hi,

I have generated some stress and deformation solutions in ANSYS workbench for muiltiple models in one project outline (different geometry and boundary conditions for each model).  I generate the solutions and everything is fine, but sometimes after switching between the solution files for differnt models, the solutions turn to "spikey" models and become useless.  I have been playing around with settings and can't seem to find anything that I would have changed.  Re-solving the solutions returns them to normal, but this takes quite a while.  Any thoughts?  Thanks.

Hi

This is a know defect. As a workaround you should rename the envirnoments--> Static Stuctural 1 --> Static Structural 2 ...ect
The problem is that workbench reads in the wrong rst file. and by renaming you make sure this doesn't happen.
