Abstract
Examples described herein relate to apparatuses and methods for performing simulation of a model of a physical object, including but not limited to, mapping mesh simulation results obtained from a finite element simulation of a finite element mesh of the model to a surface representation of the model by performing the finite element simulation using the finite element mesh to obtain the mesh simulation results, and determining arbitrary results with respect to the surface representation based on the mesh simulation results, and displaying the arbitrary results with respect to the surface representation, wherein the finite element mesh is defined independently of the surface representation.
