Displaying the deformed model shape

You can display a plot of your model showing the deformed shape during each frame of the analysis. When you request a deformed shape plot of data from a force-displacement analysis, Abaqus plots the nodal displacements by default; but you can display any nodal vector field output variable that is available on the output database. You can also use the plot options to customize the appearance of a deformed plot.
