Error when Displaying Stress in Symmetric Surface Models

I am calculating a symmetric surface model. However, the resulting stresses are not consistent. Have I done something wrong?

Answer:

In order to obtain the correct stresses displayed on all surfaces, we recommend activating the local axis system by using the surface axis system in Project Navigator - Display. It is often apparent that the respective surfaces have a different rotation of the surface axes than the other surfaces (see Image 01).
