Product: Abaqus/CAE
Benefits: You can now display a series of free body cuts emanating from a single view cut in your model. This enhancement makes it easier to investigate resultant force and moment values at multiple locations in your model.
Description: When you enable display of free body data for a selected view cut, Abaqus/CAE displays the resultant force and moment data across that view cut by default. This enhancement expands free body display for view cuts by enabling you to display a series of free body cuts spread out at different points in your model.
Figure 13–10 shows an example of resultant force and moment display for a beam subjected to three different loads along its length. The top portion of the figure shows the different loads; the middle and bottom portions show the force and moment output, respectively, using 75 free bodies emanating from a single view cut of the model.
