Hi all,

I have got a question about postprocessing when I am using '>'. For example, I want to show the von mises stress over a domain. The default expression is: fsi.mises, and I can see colour distribution over the domain. However, if I change the expression to fsi.mises>50[kPa], the legend shows 0 to 1. Could anybody tell me what does 0 to 1 mean?

Thanks for you help.

If you use the expression "fsi.mises>50[kPa]", then the plot will contain the result of evaluating the > operator. The result is 1 the inequality is satisfied and 0 where it isn't.

It sounds as if you maybe want to restrict the plot to the the part where the inequality is satisfied. You can do this by right-clicking on the plot in the Model Builder and adding a Filter node, where you enter your logical expression.
