Select Add Fibers when running a detailed filling analysis to produce results that
include fiber orientation tensors.
Prerequisite: Before running the analysis, you first need to apply a material that
includes fiber properties to your mold part. See Add Fibers to a Material
for more information.
On the Analyze icon, click Run
Analysis.
On the Stages tab of the Run Analysis dialog, adjust the Speed/Accuracy slider
to Detailed.
Select the Filling and Add Fibers
options.
For Number of layers, enter 5 or
more. The detailed solver requires a minimum of 5 mesh layers to initiate the
fiber computations.
Define other settings in the Run Analysis dialog as required for your
analysis.
Click Run.
When the analysis is completed, select the run, Filling
stage Fiber Orientation result type, and one of the
following Fiber Orientation Tensors in the Analysis Explorer.
XX: red color contour displays tensor in the
X-direction.
YY: red color contour displays tensor in the
Y-direction.
ZZ: red color contour displays tensor in the
Z-direction.
XY: displays tensor on the XY-plane.
YZ: displays tensor on the XZ-plane.
ZX: displays tensor on the ZX-plane.
