Strain energy request, in a transient implicit non-linear analysis - SOL400

Hi to everybody,
I have a model with an hyperelastic material. I have to plot, with "Results: Create --> quick plot", the strain energy of the model. When I use a static analysis SOL400, the strain energy is plotted. However, to do my analysis, I have to use a transient non-linear analysis SOL400. Firstly, in "preferences --> analysis", I set the analysis type to "Implicit non-linear". Then, I create the dynamic subcase and the usual stuff and I launch the analysis. The analysis works perfectly, but this time in the results, there isn't the strain energy, altough I request it as a result.
Does anyone know the reason and how can I do to plot the strain energy for a transient non-linear analysis?
Thank you very much,
Marco M.
