Axisymmetric 3D displays

Use the Set Result command to render axisymmetric results as a virtual solid model.

Note:

The axisymmetric 3D display options support results from any of the SOL 401 subcase types, although, only the Fourier normal modes results vary around the circumference.

• You can set the axis of rotation and the start and end angles. For example, set Start Revolve Angle to 0 and the End Revolve Angle to 360 to render the full 3D part. Specify different start and end angles to render the model as a cutaway, wedge, and so on.

• You can specify the number of radial sections to sweep through for the rendering. The more sections, the finer the display, but the more resources used.

With the Axi-symmetric Display Options dialog box, you can generate high-quality, realistic 3D renderings of axisymmetric results. Such displays enhance reports and presentation, and can improve communication with colleagues.

Note:

Setting up the axisymmetric 3D results display is available when you set the color display to contour plot.
