Greetings,

I have to select a node on the mesh to get the eigenvector amplitude in that point. I want to compare this results from Ansys with some experimental data, in order to update the model through optimization. I would like to know if it is possible in some way, to select the node on the mesh closer to a given point of coordinates x0,y0,z0... I can box select the zone with NSEL, but I cannot be sure to select just one node.

Thank you in advance,

Luca
