Sketch in results window
Sketch in results window
(OP)
I am trying to show the results of an FEA with an outline sketch of a machine that I am working on. I also need to take a few measurements from the deformed part back to the sketch to verify that a certain clearance is maintained. Unfortunately I have been unable to find a way to do this. If someone could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.
BTW, this is Pro/E Wildfire 2.0.

RE: Sketch in results window
Mechanica can show the undeformed model (not sure about WF2), yet you cannot make measurements from the undeformed model back to the original model.
There is one last option that just came to mind. If you really want to see the deformed FEA model on top of the undeformed proE model you could export the FEA results at a scaling factor of 1 to a VRML file. Then you could import the VRML file into proe and take your measurements or slices from there.
Good luck,
