We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hi Kevin,

You can define a path by right-clicking on the "Model" in the project outline and then select insert --> Construction Geometry --> Path.

Once a path is specified, you can simply request the variable of interest (for example, total deformation) to be plotted along the path. Right-click on Solution and select the variable of interest, then for the entry, Scoping Method, select "Path" and finally select your prescribed path defined earlier along the beam.
