In Simulation, what is the number at the end of the bar??

in General
Hi,
I have searched for the answer to this, but with no luck. Can someone tell me what the number at the end of the slider in Onshape Simulation is?
I have run a couple of simulations on the same assembly and noticed that this number changes with each result.


Thanks

Corollary, if you see a large difference (as in the case above) between the default legend max and the model max, then you should suspect some singularities are present. Therefore you should go in a be sure you have not overconstrained something, or connected things that you shouldn't have, or have reentrant (sharp) corners in an area of a load path, etc...
Another approach is to set this legend value at material yield (or a safety-factored yield) stress. It is certainly an area we've talked about making some usability improvements in future.
Great info about the 95th percentile @GregBrown, I had wondered about how this limit was set. A good one to have up the sleeve. Thanks
