      As shown in the figure, the lamination stack deforms after being heated. I want to measure the diameter after deformation. How can i do it ?

      Hi Zijian,

      Try creating a cylindrical coordinate at the center. In that coordinate system, the X axis will represent the radial direction, and then you can measure the directional deformation.
