Outputting Dynamic Results

[Perception]

Hello,

I ran a dynamic simulation is Abaqus, and need a way to output the results in an efficient manner. I would like to report the velocity (among other quantities) of all the nodes at all time steps. I could create a field output and select each step one at a time to report, but this approach is not practical. Does anyone know how to do this? In the end I'm hoping to get one/multiple rpt files containing the data I need. Then I can write a script in Matlab for reading/performing operations with the data.

Thanks

History output is what you should look into in the documentation (Getting Started guides, Analysis User's Guide and the Keywords Guide).
