Apr 30, 2009 #1 fxue Bioengineer Mar 26, 2009 21 0 0 IE Hi, I've developed an FE model that contains 3 steps. I am wondering if there is a way to calculate the displacement that purely caused by step 3 (not the overall displacement outputed from step 2 and step 3) of a node. Many thanks. Regards Feng
