I have done a modal analysis, but I do not know how to read the results, I find only the frequencies, but I need participating mass for every mode. Help!

Hi,
there are some calculation results which are only output during the solve process.
The participation factors can be saved on file by redirecting the whole output to file: prior to SOLVE, issue an /OUTRES command with the desired directives.

Regards
 
Thanks cbrn, but I have not understood as set up OUTRES and as go to read the results on file.
 
Hi,

I'm very sorry, I mixed up terms: the command is:

/OUTPUT,file_name,extension,,append_key

In order to reset the output to the Output-Window, simply

/OUTPUT,

Sorry again, regards.
 
Thanks cbrn, with your help I solved the problem!!!!
