Generating a Result Statistics Graph

This feature allows users to generate a graphs showing the temporal evolution of different statistical parameters of a result of the particles or the nodes of a mesh:

• Min: Minimum value of the result.

• Max: Maximum value of the result.

• Mean: arithmetic average of the result.

• Median: middle value of the result.

• Stdev: standard deviation of the result.

• CoV: Coefficient of Variance of the result (i.e., CoV = Stdev/Mean)

User can generete a result statitics graph by following these steps:

1. Select a mesh with results or a particles mesh from the list of meshes shown at the top left side of the window by clicking on its name. Alternatively, users can also select the mesh by using the selection mode on the Views toolbar and clicking on the mesh rendered on the screen.

2. Check the statistical parameters that you would like to compute.

3. Use the Variable pull-down menu to select the result/varaible that you would like to integrate.

4. If the Variable selected contains more than one component, select a component from the Component pull-down menu.

5. Select one of the Time Options:

6. All: it will compute the integral of the result for all the timesteps of the dataset.

7. Current: it will compute the integral for only the timestep that is currently rendered on the screen.

8. Click Apply button.

9. A graph that contains the temporal evolution of the statistical parameters selected generated and available at the Graphs accordion of the working project/scenario.
