Trouble ploting 2d simulation result of a single probe in quasi static

[arnaud.wist63DTG]

Hi,

I did a quasi-static simulation to find the displacement at a specific point on my model of a compliant mechanism. The problem is sometimes it works for some point and not other and after doing some other manipulation for exemple changing from x displacement to y displacement it will stop working and just plot that the displacement is some random value (usually 1mm) and the graph often doesn't make sense.

In the attached screenshots (my software is in french but you will understand) you will see:

1. displacement on X axis and the plot associated that doesn't correspond.

2. displacement on Y axis and the plot that doesn't changes at all.

3. displacement table doesn't even show any values.

I tried selecting different points and create new ones it doesn't change anything.

An other student I know wanted to plot something else on an other computer and other model and also had problem with the 2d plots. It looks like it just doesn't updates the info on the graph/tables when selecting different options.

I don't know if it's a bug or if I made something I should't in my simulation since I am not experienced. I would much appreciate if someone knows where it comes from.

Hi arnaud.wist63DTG 

In order to do look into this we will need the dataset. Thanks

Hi,

here is my fusion file.

Hi arnaud.wist63DTG,

,

Seems you are using a linear material. Could you please change it to a non-linear materials? To do this

1. Click on Study Materials

2. Change the material in this dialog to a Non-Linear material

Hi,

The problem is, it is not a mistake my material is SiO2

Like in this paper https://doi.org/10.1115/1.4043016

I don't have data on the non linear behavior but I want to stay in the elastic domain anyway. The problem is that I need to see the displacement in the elastic domain so the most suited simulation type is this one, am I wrong?

thank you for  helping me

Best regard,

Arnaud

Hi arnaud.wist63DTG

We did find an issue with 2D plots and when Probe is set you may not see any plots in Chart or Table View.

 

Problem:

The probes are not used in the transient results plot.

Software always uses the probe from the max value probe.

We have fixed this issue in internal builds. Sorry for the inconvenience. We dont know which release this fix will be available. 

Best regards

Shekar
