Derived Values

Results > Derived Values

Allows you to evaluate and visualize numerical data
Automatically creates table under Results > Table
Integrate any spatially
dependent variable on
appropriate geometric
entity level
Evaluates a variable at a point
or geometric vertices
Evaluates global variables,
lumped parameters and built-in
physical constants

Cross sections Cut line
