Isovalues and Display Options

Displacement and Norm

The displacement isovalues (1 displacement and 2 displacement) display the displacement in the direction 1 and 2 of the main axes (u1 and u2).

Accuracy

To calculate the accuracy, if the pattern size and the grid step are the same, Icasoft calculate the mean distance between the vertex of 4 adjacent pattern in pixel (Points 1, 2, 3 and 4 on the following picture).

 

Accuracy definition

 

The accuracy is represented as follow :
