how can I get the correct volume value and the body resistance!

In joule heating model of 3D with comsol 4.3, using the measure tool, I can't get the volume value, only displaying as follows "Domains: 1. Faces: 8. Edges: 12. Points: 6. CAD objects: 1.", How can i get the volume value,such as 1M^3 for the cubic of length 1m;
In the results ,using the volume integration of domain index, I can't get the correct result.can you tell me why?
except this ,how can I get the resistance of the body?
Thanks a lot!

Hi
You can get the volume by doing a volume integration with the integrand of "1" (Definitions Coupling Volume integration => intop1() over the desired domains
+ Definitions - Variables MyVol = intop1(1)
To evaluate any variable you need to "populate" the mesh and the data set, you can do this simplest, without solving fully by "Get initial values". If you had solved already, by adding new Definitions you need to to a Solver "Update" (because re-demanding the "initial conditions" clears also your previous results if existing)
If you model is "small" the cleanest is to resolve when you have changed the Definitions node

Good luck
