Hi all,
I'm running a 2D implicit dynamic analysis in Abaqus Standard. Since I work on remote machines, I normally submit jobs via terminal – input file and subroutines if needed – and do post-processing by reading the .odb file with abaqus python.
In my analysis I define a surface (actually a curve since the analysis is 2D) via
My issue is I can't seem to find this output in the .odb file. I don't know where to search, and the fact that abaqus python has little to no documentation available (unless I'm missing something) does not help. Let me know if a MWE is needed.
Is this the best way to obtain integrals over objects with lower dimensionality than the mesh one is working with? Or is it something that can be done entirely in post?
Thank you!

*SURFACE and assign traction boundary conditions via *DSLOAD. I was trying to output the value of some quantities integrated over the surface (let's say named "side"), and the way I went about it was by requesting integrated output with *INTEGRATED OUTPUT, SURFACE=side, VARIABLE=ALL. The quantities to be integrated do not matter at this stage, ideally I would define them in a UVARM subroutine.My issue is I can't seem to find this output in the .odb file.
