All you need to know is Red is bad and Blue is good.

Not necessarily. Once I delberately flipped the color scale (working
in NASTRAN) just to give the boss a coronary. I also experimented w/
various other monochrome and dichrome spectra. Purple-to-deep green
was pretty cool.

It depends on what type of results you are looking at. Factor of Safety,
then red is bad. Von Mises, then it doesn't mean anything other than that
is the highest concentration of stress as opposed to the lowest since the
results automatically scale to what numbers it sees, but that is all that it
means.

I will typically use a non chromatic color scale. Olive, Red, Blue,
Yellow, Green, Magenta, etc. I do this simply to allow a clear
distinction in boundaries from one stress level to the next. Also, if
comparing different designs I will maintain the same range of values
from one plot to the next so that a person reading the report will not
be mislead into thinking one part is worse than the next simply because
there is more "red". And if it really needs to be clear what is going
on then a graph of nodal stresses along a clearly visible line on the
stress plot will be inlaid into the stress plot.
