    export stress data of selected nodes, write macro

    And, finally, this one solved the problem: *GET, NoNodes, NODE, 0, COUNT !Get number of nodes *DIM, ANODES, TABLE, NoNodes, 6 !Declare table to save coordinates and displacements *VGET, NODELIST, NODE, ALL, NLIST *DO, J, 1, NoNodes,1 *GET, ANODES(J,1), NODE, NODELIST(J), LOC, X *GET...

    export stress data of selected nodes, write macro

    I also tried another code, this seems to be more simpple, but didn't work either. *GET, NoNodes, NODE, 0, COUNT !Get number of nodes *DO, I, 1, NoNodes,1 Set, I *CFOPEN, OutputFile,txt *VWRITE, NX(I), NY(I), NZ(I) !Save in a file (G30.15, ' ',G30.15, ' ',G30.15, ' ',G30.15) *VWRITE, UX(I)...

    How to use APDL to create probes?

    Hi, I would like to automate the creation of probes in Workbench Mechanical Results. I.e., I would like to use a APDL (or Matlab) command to create a lot of probes and export a table relating X, Y and Z deformations at these points, considering a Coordinate System I created. Is it possible? How?

    Parametric Study - Export Nodal Results

    SergioLCosta, are you using StaticStructural Results Software? You can create a PROBE based on its location (using the coordinated system). It will not show you the value for a specific element, but for a specific point, I believe it solve. Right click at Solution / Insert / Probe. n8th8n...

    How to simulate thermal stresses?

    Thanks very much, ChadV, That was the problem. I was using "Plane Strain", than I changed to "Plane Stress" and the problem was solved (and next to the result using a 3D analysis)

    How to simulate thermal stresses?

    Hi, When I simulate a simple block, 2D, free, and I apply an uniform thermal condition (cooling in my case), It starts a shrinkage (as we expected) and we can see a displacement in the result. However, Ansys also shows a stress happening. Ok, One can say there's stress since Sigma =...
