angle deflection measurement

how do I measure the deflected angle instead of displacement after i have applied load for the model?
1 REPLY 1

Create a Cylindrical co-ordinate system in the model in the correct orientation so theta can measure the deflected angle. Run the analysis again and create a displacement result window changing the component from magnitude to x, y or z. You can now select a different co-ordinate system - select the cylindrical one, and then change the component to theta, and you now have what you are looking for.
