• Victor, not sure what you mean by that. I am anchoring one end and displacing the other. Trying to get ballpark force to hold end in place while pulling. Thanks!

• Thanks, Sebastian! I didn't see that choice there. It's not giving me the reaction forces. Any insights? Everything converges and the deformation looks legit.

• Actually I found the issue. There was a weird spike in stresses near the end of the run that was 10x higher than the stresses at other times. As a result the auto-range of stresses was so high that the other stresses were barely showing up. By ad…

• Great thread. I have an issue where the max stress is shown on the scale but no matter how I slice and dice, I can't find the max values the model says are there. I can make a decision as to whether they are artifactual or not, but I need to find …
