Post Processing of two different calculations

[PhilippTheEngineer]

Hi all,

while working with FE-Software i always stumble across the fact that i need to compare two simulation results with each other.
Especially if you want to find out what effect a minor change has to the results.
Would it be possible to implement something like this ? I ve seen it in some other software solutions.

Yes you can open two instances of prepomax but you need to do everything twice (setting the scale, the loadcase and so on…)

here is an example of how simscale did it :

Basically, this would require the possibility to use multiple viewports at once (aligned vertically, horizontally or in different ways) and to link them for more convenient comparisons. Abaqus also has such a feature but some settings have to be done for each output database separately anyway.

That is possible but requires a lot of work. A lot
