Energy norm command in Abaqus

[renanmp12]

How do I get the energy norm in Abaqus ?

 

[FEA way]

Abaqus provides some error estimates (here called error indicators) as output variables for implicit analyses. However energy norm error is not available. You would have to operate on field output data in Viewer or use scripting to get additional output like that.

It looks like the post in the General section of Mechanical Engineering was deleted.

Here is the link I had posted in that thread, for reference:

If you are thinking of the energy norm as an implicit solution control, then Abaqus/Standard does not offer it. It's a weak criterion that is easily fulfilled so some codes do not bother putting it out there. I haven't used Abaqus in a few years so things may have changed.
