COSMOSWorks 2009 Chart Options

COSMOSWorks 2009 Chart Options

(OP)

When calculation the 'stress' of a part... our Company standard is to calculate the stress at 60% of the yeild!

Is there a way of showing this on the chart as well as indicating the 'Yeild strength' which is shown as standard?

Make a factor of safety plot and set the factor of safety to 1/.6 = 1.6.

RE: COSMOSWorks 2009 Chart Options

You could set the maximum on your chart to the 60% yield value.  Everything exceeding this will be shown in red.

yes, that is what I have done... but ideally I would like to show both the 'Yeild' and the '60% of Yeild'!

RE: COSMOSWorks 2009 Chart Options

Well you could alway create a custom color mapping in which all stresses above a certain value were a certain color.
