Dear Mustaine3,
thanks again for your reply. i actually need to extract shear stress related customised variable: shear stress* displacement, over every frame.
i am sure that can be done through CAE by exporting each variable and multiplying together, which also can be very time and labour...
Dear Mustaine3,
thanks for your reply. just to confirm, so did you mean there is no direct method to extract the nodal stress?
and my second question is:
i had succeeded to extract the elemental stress. based on my understanding, is it right that the only way to get 'true' nodal stress would be...
Hi all,
I am trying to extract nodal stress (shear stress) from odb file using a python script.
I first defined a field request in CAE with a domain of a set of nodes, which in INP file is shown as "*Output, field *Node Output, nset=Set-1, variable=PRESELECT". and i select stress to be the...
Thanks for your hint!
stress are element results. i found i need to request the nodal stress output by having "*element output, POSITION=NODES" in the inp file. In the CAE, i first tried to define a set of nodes in the instance of interest. and then added a Field Output Requests for each step in...
hi everyone,
i was writing a python script to extract nodal customised shear stress from odb file over each frame. i first tried to extract shear stress from each frame as a practice.
i successfully obtained all the nodes in the part of interests, i.e. the total number is correct.
however, i...
