Actually that surface is subjecting tensile stresses n body is casting. so i have to luk for the max principal stress. @PerennialII: At the surface the value is 57000 & the max is 64000... so the variation is of 7000 within the single element. Also The ultimate tensile strength is 65000...

Yeah i did that... n also refined that surface because i knw the max value will come on to that area. The transistion between the elements were good. I also used aggressive meshing for shape checking. But the results are same... Is it possible that due to results extrapolated n averages at...

Pls check the attached file for the model. The image shows the cross sectional result for the Max Principal Stress. (Mesh- HexDominent)

Hi all, I did simple problem, in which assembly is subjected to single load & it is fixed at other end. I used Higher Order Tet element (& tried with Hexdominent Method also) for the casting body. The vonmises stress shows the true results but when i was looking for the Max Principal...
