<p>In my experience, using the WARP filter with a scale value of 1.0
on the displacement vector will give the actual distorted mesh at
the time step, or load step being examined by ParaView. <br>
</p>
<p>If you are seeing "mesh overlaps" with the WARP filter as
described above, then it is likely one of several conditions:</p>
<p>(1) The simulation datum set already contains the deformed mesh
at each time/state-of-loading. (Check with whomever wrote the
results output routine in your software.)</p>
<p>(2) The loads specified are larger than the structure can
properly support,</p>
<p>(3) The simulation software may contain contact (aka sliding
interface) capability that is not being used or improperly
specified,</p>
<p>(4) ....</p>

<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color:
#000000;font-size: 10pt;">Hi all,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Can anyone tell me how to see the deformed shape? Right
now, I can use wrap filter to magnify the displacement. But if
I the magnified factor is too small, I can't see the small
deformation. However, if I use much a bigger factor, the
deformation will be too big that the mesh elements will have
some overlap. So I wander which filter I can use to see the
deformation directly.</div>
