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.

Thank for the quick response sir.

Under Element Mean, there is no option for Average Across Bodies. I have separately scoped the top surface for the area with maximum Element Mean stress and the 'Top/Bottom' stress is still lower than the 'Top' stress. Does this mean that the 'Top/Bottom' is unable to capture the maximum stress and I need to check 'Top' and 'Bottom' just to be safe?Â
