How to plot stress for a given time?

[Andengel]

Hi,

I have made a transient analysis of an offshore windmill, and traced the top node during an interval of 100 seconds with the NSOL-command. This gave me a maximum deflection occurring at 20 seconds.

How do i plot the Von Mises-stress for this time?

Go to /post1 and click on "read results" in the left hand menu. Scroll down until you reach the 0.2s time set of results and click read. Then issue plns,s,eqv in the command menu bar.
