Combination / Envelope Results

 

 

 

 

Function

For the Linear Static Analysis in the Analysis Case, the Load Sets in a Case may be combined with Load Sets in another Case.  The combination of results is possible when both "Solve Each Load Set as Independently Load Case” option has been checked for the Load Sets within the Case and when the Output results of the Mesh Set is available.

<Combination / Envelope Results>

 

 

New Set

Inputs the new load combination name of the new set being created.  

 

From Result

 

Set

Shows the Analysis Case of the Linear Static Analysis that has results.  Selects the Analysis Case to combine.  

 

Step

Shows the Load Set in the Analysis Case that has been selected in the Set.  Selects the load condition to combine.  

 

Scale Factor

Inputs the load factor that will be applied to the selected load condition.  

 

Combination Type

Inputs the load factor that will be applied to the selected load condition.  

 

Linear

Linearly combine the results of the combined analysis condition.  

 

Envelope

 

Max: Shows the maximum value for each load condition of the analysis results.  

 

Min : Shows the minimum value for each load condition of the analysis results.   

 

ABS max (unsigned) : Shows the maximum absolute value of each load condition in the analysis results and ignores the sign of the relevant results.  

 

ABS max (signed) :  Shows the maximum absolute value of each load condition in the analysis and shows the sign of the relevant results.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

Example


 

 

Procedure:

Result Component Combination

1. Execute : Results > Results Component Combination

2. Select the Analysis set from where the results will be gathered.

3. Select the specific step.

4. Select the type of Data results to add.

5. Once the Data has been selected, Click add.

6. Repeat this procedure until all the desired results are displayed in the 'Define Combination Information’ window.

7. In the Comb. Expr box, enter a mathematical expression ie.

8. If the Symbol 1 = A and Symbol 2 = B, simply combine the two results by A+B.

9. Enter the Combin Name and click [Add]. This name will be displayed in the post works window results and output as contour in the model.
