i want to get S33 values for each element face. how can i verify that i am using the right coord. system -- global, that i've set it manually? i have added this in beginning of the script:
odb.rootAssembly.DatumCsysByThreePoints(name='newCSYS',
coordSysType=CARTESIAN, origin=(0.0, 0.0, 0.0), point1=(1.0, 0.0, 0.0),
point2=(0.0, 1.0, 0.0))
dtm = odb.rootAssembly.datumCsyses['newCSYS']
but the problem is still, that i am getting some strange results for s33 (and/or normal to the face value).
do i have to transform output to the before specified coordsys (getTransformedField) or is that statement above enough?
