How do you change the unit of the Von Mises criterion?

Simulation Generality

Hi all

How do I change the unit of the Von Mises constraint (in Generative structural analysis)?

I am currently in N/m², I would like to display it in MPa.

Thank you for your help

Hello

Have you looked in Tools->Options->Settings and measures --> "units" tab?

Hello Chamade, and thank you for your answer.

I actually didn't go to look in "Settings and measurements".

But.... I couldn't find it... I haven't found my Von Mises criterion, yet I've gone through the list several times...

Can I no longer read? ^^

Hello 

the constraint is of the same unit as the pressure, so I think you have to change the unit of the "pressure" parameter which is by default in N/m. 

On the other hand, if you have put a pressure as a load in your calculation model, also change its value because its unit will be changed too.

Indeed, I don't have the module to check, but I would also have changed the pressure unit

Hello

Thank you for the help you gave me. I had also thought about changing the pressure unit, but I wanted to have confirmation that there was no Von Mises on the list.

So thank you, it's perfect!

Have a nice day
