   Note:

   • You can create multiple reference systems, but you can only select one as current at a time.
   • Reference systems created within stages are specific to those stages.
   • Only the displacement results change with the creation of a new reference system.
   • Springback analysis involves rigid body displacement and rotation. Use a reference system to remove the rigid body from the springback displacement.
