Make 1D simulation visible in 3D

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi guys, I'm pretty sure, that this is possible, but I don't know, how to do it. So, my problem uses a cylinder as geometry. However, due to symmetry, I only want to do a 1D simulation to reduce computational costs. This 1D line would be basically the diameter of the cylinder. The simulation yields me a stress distribution over this line, but I'd like to make it visible on the whole cross-section of my cylinder, meaning I need to rotate my results of the 1D line around its centre. How do you do that?

Thanks in advance.

Simon

Hey Simon,

Have you looked into the Revolution 1D node, under the Dataset node in the Results section?

Cheers,

Alex

That's, what I was looking for! Thanks a lot.
