Stressed Volume for a Set Angular Segment in a Thick Walled Cylinder

Stressed Volume for a Set Angular Segment in a Thick Walled Cylinder

Stressed Volume for a Set Angular Segment in a Thick Walled Cylinder

(OP)
Hi I am modelling the expansion of a variable thickness, thick walled cylinder by a displacement applied to the inner surface of the cylinder currently in 2D and following that in 3D. I want to calculate the stressed volumes of the cylinder wall i.e. what % of the area/volume is between x and y Pa.

I can do this for the whole cylinder but I need to calculate the stress for regular angular intervals e.g. 30 deg. I can partition the geometry to do this, but my question is can I do I it using some tool in the Visualization module in case the angular interval I need changes, in which case i would have run all my models again if I used the partition method.
