The mapping quality is questioned more frequently as more people use the mapping algorithms and its expanding options for mapping, data transfer and more. As a result, the Envyo application now holds an experimental return mapping algorithm which is adjusted based on customer needs. The main idea is that a simple closest point mapping is performed between the source and target mesh, and once the data is transferred from the source to the target, then the source value is subtracted from the target value (target side value - source side value). The result is stored on either the integration point or node. Use the result file to fringe the different values and see the difference between the two meshes.
Only stress, strain, and thickness values are transferrable. This also includes history variables.
