The graph area of the Hyperelastic Material Definition dialog box displays stress values on the Y-axis and strain values on the X-axis. Creo Simulate plots the stress and strain data of any test in the graph area. When you select material models in the Show Best Fit Material Model Curves area of the Hyperelastic Material Definition dialog box, Creo Simulate draws curves for the selected material models. This curve closely fits the data points. By default, Creo Simulate selects all the material models in the Show Best Fit Material Model Curves area and uses unique color for each curve.

You can create various types of tests and Creo Simulate creates a unique graph for each type of test. Select Graph > Show All to view graphs for all types of tests in the graph area. If you do not select this, Creo Simulate displays graph for active test. When you change the active test, the graph changes automatically. The name and type of the test appear in the graph area.

When you create the first row in the test area, Creo Simulate displays the grid lines in the graph area by default. Select Graph > Toggle Grid to hide the grid lines. Use the Graph > Graph Options command to open the Graph Window Options dialog box and manage the display of the graph area.
