Creo Simulate should have a method to allow the display of the worst case stresses of multiple load cases. This behavior would be better then the current practice of showing a total superposition stress state from the various load cases. The super position method either over reports or under reports the actual stress state.
For instance, I have 3 load cases to review. I must review each load case individually now.
As an example. If I had a 1in^2 rod which has two load cases. 1) A 10 lb pushing force along the rod, and 2) a 200 lb pulling force. Then Creo would display a total stress of 190psi. It would be better if Creo could display a 200 psi result.
As a bonus feature, the Query function should report the load case which produced the highest stress in the area being queried.
