take square root of surface integral

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I have a derived value that computes a surface integral for each frequency solution, but the final result I want is the square root of all the surface integrals. How do I get a table of square roots of surface integrals?

Hi

you can define a variable being the surface integral, or even the sqrt of the surface integral. Then you use the Results - Derived values - Global evaluation of your variable. Then in the Derived values, for a list, you have the choice to sum or take the rms ... (you get only one line then, as the operation is performed on all items, hence you might want to use 2 global evaluations, one for the detailed list, and one for the sum or operation on the table content)

Good luck
