Hi,
I am doing structural analysis with 3D tetrahedron pore pressure elements (C3D10MPH). My problem is that my odb output which I can see using abaqus viewer is not in accordance with the results file output. For some reason when I use the "POSITION=CENTROIDAL" attribute the values from the results file reduces to about half of the values in the odb output. I don't know why this happens, as the output from the results file seems normal when I omit the "POSITION=CENTROIDAL" command. Does anyone know if one has to take special considerations into account when using "POSITION=CENTROIDAL" on C3D10MPH elements?
My output requests in my input file looks like this:
*OUTPUT, FIELD, FREQUENCY=100
*ELEMENT OUTPUT, elset=all_elems
VOIDR
**
*EL FILE, elset=all_elems, FREQUENCY=100,POSITION=centroidal
VOIDR
**
*End Step
Thanks,
