I would like to plot a graph of stresses in x, y, and z direction vs depth respectively for the whole geometry as shown in figure. Any ideas how?

Have you tried path results? Please check the following link. If you can't access the link check the links in my signature for the process.n-AniketnHow to access Ansys help linksnGuidelines for Posting on Ansys Learning Forumn

Hi. I have yes. But I was looking at analysing the average changing stress over an area rather than along a path. n

Something like surface results as follows?nMore info at:n-AniketnHow to access Ansys help linksnGuidelines for Posting on Ansys Learning Forumn

I want the a stress vs depth analysis of the bodies shown in green and blue. But unless its a path, I cannot seem to get information of stress vs depth of the specimen because for surface and body ANSYS provides stress vs time. I want to know how the normal stress in the x-axis direction for the blue and green bodies is changing with increasing depth from the surface.
