24.7. Contour in MTT2D

The contour display is available in the flexible roller group.

  • Displays displacements, strains and stresses

  • Includes a color legend indicated the numeric range of the colors

To know the strain or stress of a specific node through Scope or Plot, the user must define the node as an output node.

Caution

Three animation files are generated after the dynamic analysis. The post-processing about a flexible roller group is based upon these files. To animate the analysis, result later, these files should remain in the same working folder as the model and output files. The names of animation files are composed with the names of models and each flexible roller group combined with the following file extensions:

  • *.rfa: displacement animation data.

  • *.erd: strain recovery data.

  • *.srd: stress recovery data.
