 The Von Mises stress distribution of the bonded assembly is displayed below, which shows that the maximum stress is approximately 108 MPa. To load the simulation results later, create a simulation reader block, right click, select the simulation, and connect it to a visualize block. The Von Mises stress distribution of the bonded assembly is displayed below, which shows that the maximum stress is approximately 108 MPa.
