While in Mechanical APDL the \/EFACET command can be employed to improve the representation of beam cross sections, in Mechanical a different path is to be followed. Insert a command object under the line object in the geometry branch, in which you refine the number of cells in the beam section using the SECDATA command. Then, in the Details of a Result Object, choose “Results File Item” as Scoping Method. Please, also find a simple example attached.<\/p>\n
