I am using Solidworks Premium, I would like to compare several designs of the same part by creating a histogram of the stresses supported by these different versions. The goal will be to establish a percentage of the volume of the part supporting a stress between 120 and 150 MPa then 150_170 MPa etc and then to compare these results from one version to another (I understand that the pictures offer this kind of comparison, but it's purely visual and I want a table with values). The icing on the cake is that I would also like to know which part of these stresses represents mainly tension and which part represents mainly compression, I will spare you shear... And above all, is it possible with the Premium version I use ?
Hello
See the solution here:

What you want to do is very similar to what SW calls "tendency":

But it's available in simulation pro and premium (so not in Solidworks premium which only has the 'basic' version of simulation)
A little check and you have it ;-)
