Maximum and Minimum
Select the Maximum evaluation () or Minimum evaluation () dataset, found under the More Datasets submenu, to create a dataset that computes the maximum or minimum of another dataset.
Data
Select a Dataset for the data to compute the maximum or minimum. To compute the maximum or minimum for a Solution dataset, use a Selection to define the geometric entity (point, boundary, edge, or domain) to integrate over. Right-click the dataset and select Add Selection.
Settings
Select a Geometry level: Taken from dataset (the default), Volume, Surface, Line, or Point. The default means the highest geometry dimension for the data in the dataset: typically volumes in 3D, surfaces in 2D, and lines in 1D.
Select the evaluation point type from the Point type list:
•
 Lagrange points (the default) to evaluate the maximum or minimum value in the Lagrange points. Select a Lagrange order (default: 5; the Lagrange order is the number of partitions of an element edge) to adjust the accuracy of the minimum or maximum values.
•
 Node points to evaluate the maximum or minimum value in the node points of the extended mesh.
•
 Integration points to evaluate the maximum or minimum value in the integration points. Select an Integration order (default: 4) to adjust the accuracy of the minimum or maximum values.
