I am new in COMSOL and I am trying to do something which I think is very simple, I want to plot the normal stresses i.e. sigma_xx, sigma_yy, sigma_zz. The default is the Von Mises stress. I go under the settings window for "surface" and click the double arrow symbol next to expression. There are a whole bunch of options there and I don't know which is the right for me. There's principal stresses, there's stress tensor (spatial), and there's stress tensor local coordinate system. All the plots end up looking differently. Which plots will get me the sigma_xx, sigma_yy and sigma_zz?
