Hi, You can use a flexible rotation probe result for measuring the rotation. This result probe can output the rotation associated with a flexible or rigid body.
The probe is available for use in static and transient analysis. For solid bodies, since no rotational degrees of freedom is available, the probe output is zero values.
For this case, you can create a remote point at the point of interest and set the Loction Method of probe to remote points and select the created remote point.Â
Along an edge different nodes will have different rotation values so care should be taken while defining the remote point.
