Hello,

 

If I understood correctly, you want to get the Particle Displacement in Rocky.

You can access the Particle Coordinates X, Y and Z from the Properties tab on the Data Editors panel, so you can calculate the displacement vector with the coordinates from two output times. 

To get the displacement for a single particle, you might create an Inspector upon the Particles entity and select the intended particle by its ID, then go to Inspector | Properties sub-tab and check the Coordinates you need, right click and plot them. 

Check the Rocky User Manual for more information about the Inspector User Process (go to Menu, Help | Manuals | User Manual).

 

Best regards,

Lucas
