Hello,

I need to obtain Mises data along an edge based path for the entire period of a step. I have tried using 'path' option and then plotting x-y data but it plots only for a single step frame whereas I am required to get the Mises data for the entire step duration.

I also needed some clarification regarding the edge based path generated by ABAQUS using 'path' option. Does ABAQUS take into consideration all the nodes that fall along this edge generated or is it just the ending points?

Can we obtain data for entire step for a certain set of nodes using GUI or do we need to use any script for it?

Please help me with it.

Thanks,
Ankit
