  Hi!
  
  I've simulated my model and I would like to see the direction of equivalent stress.
  
  How can I do that?

  Hi Shivani,
  
  Equivalent stress is a scalar, it doesn't have a direction.
  
  You want in plot Vector Principal Stress.

  Click on the Solution branch then click on the Stress toolbar and pick Vector Principal Stress from the list.
