Display values of variables used during simulation

Hello, I have a question regarding variables used under Component, Definitions (see attached screenshot). I am using variables that change during simulation and are used as input for forces on the mechanical part. I am wondering if there is either a way to get the evolution of these variables as the simulation converges, or at least if there is a way to get the final values of these variables at the end of the simulation. In the Results section, I only seem to be able to obtain values that I can compute from the mesh, and can't seem to be able to either read / plot / obtain the values of these variables in any way. Any help would be appreciated. Best, Cedric

Hi
If your variables depend on x,y,z coordinates they are difficult to return as a number.
You can use probes to extract values from the model as numbers and plot them while solving.

Hello, Thank you very much for your help! The particular variable I am interested in is actually a scalar (no dependance on axes). I could access it using the probes functions, thank you for your help! Best, Cedric
