Extract Result

[macroguy]

Dear ABAQUS users,

i am doing a linear perturbation analysis on a 3-D deformable solid model. I have a question on extracting the results once the analysis is done. It may be very straight forward, but since i am using ABAQUS for the first time (as i use ANSYS most of the time) please try to help me.

How can i extract all the nodal coordiantes(undeformed) and nodal displacemnts, and write them out to a seperate file?

Currently i am using field-output editor, but it is not giving me what i need.

regards

I suggest that you use python script to read the odb file.
It's quite easy to read the data you need with python. You can look into the ABAQUS documentation.

No need for python, just use *Node print to write reults to the dat file. Look up the options avaliable.
