Can I have as an output the matrix K and the right-hand side vector p of a linear problem

K u = p

when I solve it by an abaqus analysis?

I know I can obtain u for all my nodal dofs by the output request

*OUTPUT,FIELD
*NODE OUTPUT
U

or in the case of an electrical analysis

*OUTPUT,FIELD
*NODE OUTPUT
EPOT

I'm now particularly interested in how can I have the term in right hand side vector of an electrical analysis for all my nodes, because I want calculate the dot product between u and p. I tried with

*OUTPUT,FIELD
*NODE OUTPUT
CECUR, RECUR

but these terms are all zero (in my problem there are only sone DECUR on some external face of elements).

Can you help me? It would be very useful for my work and that of my chief.
