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 Marco, 

If you click the Initial stress ( external model) and check the element-wise data given in the detail pane, you can see the stress components being applied for all the elements. 

For checking purposes, you can check dyanin in LSPP and the initial state of the stress solution to see if there are any differences. 

Cheers, RamÂ
