data. If an update is necessary, right-click the Contacts node, and click
Update.

After you update the simulation, the load glyphs relocate if the feature that
they were associated with moved as a result of the geometry change. The
direction of the load does not change, even if the feature associated with the
load changes orientation.
Change Solution Conditions
After you run an analysis on your model, you can change the conditions under
which the results were obtained. Rerun the analysis to see effects of the
changes. You can edit the loads and constraints you defined, add new loads
and constraints, or delete loads and constraints. To change your simulation
conditions, enter the stress analysis environment if you are not already in it.
