nodes coordinate 1

[alialsaffar]

Hi , I am using Abaqus CAE to simulate hertzian contact , there are about 2000 nodes in active area of contact in the master surface , I would like to get the pressure contact value and the coordinate for each node in a tabular form , I can get them via choosing the nodes one by one ( but it is too slow and difficult ) way , so please I need help to get the pressure value and the coordinate for each node in a tabular form , Thanks a lot .

Try to use:
*Output, history, nset=relevant_nodes
coord, cpress

or similar I dont have the manual here. Then enter the A/viewer and XY-plot create and plot coord ans cpress in the same diagramme

Can't you select a bunch of nodes in the Viewer and generate a results file that has both COORD and CPRESS values? I think you can.
