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
