Laminate random results

The following table lists the output requests that you can enable in the Laminate Random Output Requests modeling object and the corresponding post-processing results nodes.

Warning:

In post-processing, the software automatically computes and displays derived quantities for certain results types. For the peak and number of positive crossing random results, ignore these derived quantities as they are inaccurate. For more information, see Accurate and derived peak results.
