Hello,

It is true that the stress and strains are evaluated at the integration points, but the postprocessor does the averaging of those stress results to the respective nodes, called averagred stress values. Similarly unaveraged, elemental difference, nodal fraction etc. are available. But in Mechanical GUI, it is not directly feasible to have integration point/ Gauss point stress values.

Thanks,
