Exporting MASS STIFFNESS DAMPING MATRIX in EXPLICIT DYNAMICS

[adas_11]

Hi,

Is there any technique to export mass stiffness and damping matrix when using Explicit dynamics Solver as I see that the input Command tab is inactive.

 

[FEA way]

Try this code:

- stiffness matrix:

*DMAT,MatKD,D,IMPORT,FULL,file.full,STIFF
*PRINT,MatKD,Kdense.matrix

- mass matrix:

*DMAT,MatMD,D,IMPORT,FULL,file.full,MASS
*PRINT,MatMD,Mdense.matrix

- damping matrix:

*DMAT,MatCD,D,IMPORT,FULL,file.full,DAMP
*PRINT,MatCD,Cdense.matrix

If you can't do it in explicit dynamics try different type of analysis. Matrices should be the same regardless of the time integration method.
