Max of corner averaging means that the maximum value from all the corners of an element
are extracted and the value is shown at the centroid of the element.
Max of corner averaging means that the maximum value
from all the corners of an element are extracted and the value is shown at the centroid of the
element. The tensor and vector components are extracted and the invariants are computed for
each corner prior to assigning to the element centroid. For result components, the
corresponding components from each corner is extracted and then the maximum value is assigned
to the element centroid. For invariants, the corresponding invariants are calculated from each
tensor at the element corners and then the maximum value is assigned at the centroid.
For
example, as shown in the Nodal Averaging of Elemental Results topic, there are four tensors
at each corner of the element A: [A1], [A2], [A3], and [A4].
The max of corner
aggregation of the xx component at the Element A centroid is:
This averaging option is only available when the Use corner data option is
checked in the Contour or Iso panels.
