Obtaining vertical and horizontal displacements.

Ian Mayhew Aug 15, 2012 12:37 PM

Hi All,

Could someone please help me with teh following,

I am applying a vertical force to a buckyball and want to find the horizontal and vertical displacement at the equator of the ball. I can only seem to get the maximum vertical displacement, is there a way I can pick a point and identify an X and Y coordinate displacement for that point.

Thanks in advance

RMB results > define displacement plot

You can use the probe tool or sensor to get more pointed results but this will give you displacements in only the directions you specify. Note that in the plot the x direction result shows displacement of material squished out only
