3.6. Expressions

A Postprocessor Expression is similar to a Function Expression in the Motion Preprocessor. It represents a formula that can be written as a combination of functions of displacement, velocity, and acceleration between specified markers, and it also supports basic mathematical functions. For more information, see Function Expression in the Motion Preprocessor User Guide.

You can define the name and the expression itself in the Expression properties as shown in the figure and table below.
