Running the analysis and comparing results with the original Conrod model

“

- [Instructor] We have prepared two studies ready for analysis. We'll now run these and compare the results. So looking at the first study, with fillets. We check the mesh size. We create the mesh. We want a mesh size of .1 of an inch which is what we have there. So let's run the analysis and it's carrying out the meshing at the moment. Now it's launching the analysis. Now it's complete and we have the results. We're carrying down on the results part of the menu here. Let's right mouse click on results, go to Chart Options, and we want to show the maximum annotation to see where that peak Von Mises stress is. So I want to go to Definition. I want to switch off the Deformed shape. Under Settings I want to make the Fringe Options to be Discrete and the Boundary Options to be set to Mesh. If we come back to Definitions I just want to go to Advanced Options. I want to look at Element Values. So with all that set let's check again. We get a plot of un-deformed stress contours and we can…
