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.

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
