User defined Results

      Hello everyone! I have a question regarding user-defined results. Is it possible to extract only one number from an expression? Specifically, I need to find the maximum value of the maximum principal stress from the analysis and divide it by the abs(s1). In the attached image, the maximum value is 53.142. I tried using the expression max(s1;s2;s3), but it didn't work. Is there a way to automate this process and obtain the desired value?

      Hi Gustavo,

      S1, S2 and S3 must be separated by a comma and not semi-colon.

      For more expressions, check this help document: User Defined Result Expressions

      Best Regards,
