it worked, thank you very much :) I also tried, as you suggested, to make a loop for all the integration points to calculate the distance from the points detected on the surface. And as expected in terms of computational effort it takes really long. Now what I wanted to do is start to make this...
Thank you very much. It works very well. By chance do you have also an idea on how to extract the coordinates that belong to the outer surface? I could create a set before but the idea is to do everything after the simulation. I tried with this piece of code:
p = mdb.models[name].parts[name]...
So, if I create a set object with the outer surface of the model then I can export the coordinates of the nodes that belong to this set, right? And after that with the coordinates of the integration points how can I proceed? By the way, really thank you for the quick reply
Hi everyone,
I am new in the forum and I have a problem I am trying to solve for weeks, maybe you can help me. After my simulation in Abaqus, once I have exported the stress at each integration point with the respective coordinate, I need to calculate for each integration point the distance...
