I solved the thermal stresses in a plate using two faces of symmetry, saving computational cost. I wonder if COMSOL allows me to mirror the two symmetric faces and visualize the deformation in the full plate rather than in the quarter that I simulated.


Thanks

Hi

indeed at least in the most recent versions (as the one you quote, yuo can revolve a 2D-axi or extrude a 2D or mirror a 2D or 3D model, you do that under the Data Set node (right click+...) then you can add a specific higher dimension plot node and refer to your new data set

Good luck
