Issue:
After running my Static Analysis block, the deformation scale slider does not show any impact on my results and is stuck at a range of 0-10.Applies to:
- Simulation HUD
- Static Analysis
Cause:
The cause of this issue is due to your Static Analysisblock running without force. If you have a Static Analysis block set up with no forces acting on it, and the block runs, then there is no deformation to occur. This is represented in the example below, showing only a Displacement Restraintblock with no force applied. This result is then cached in the block, so even if you add a force and rerun the analysis, the deformation will not change.
Solution:
There are two possible solutions for this issue:- Make the Static Analysisblock a variable. The Deformation Scale slider can correctly show the results by making the analysis a variable.
- Create a new Static Analysisblock and transfer the inputs. Starting with a new static analysis block clears the previously cached deformation results. Ensure that the block doesn’t run until your forces are added to the Boundary Conditions List.
