    FE displacments normal to the local surface - HOW TO GET?

    Thanks Brad. Our latest thinking was to average the normals of the elements attached to the grid in order to estimate the normal at the grid location. This avoids a nasty surface fit to the local area which might give a marginally better answer. We were just wondering if there was a function...

    FE displacments normal to the local surface - HOW TO GET?

    Greetings fellow square and triangle slingers... I was approached to help develop a tool that would post process finite element displacement data and return back only that portion of each grid's movement that was normal to its local surface. (Emmitted noise being the goal). Any knowledge of a...
