Hi.
I've got a few qustions about outputs.
First, what i've got is: a shell model with more than 1 layer.
Kind of like this, but a little more complex (well not that much ^^)
This is just a testing model, but ok
1)
When jobrun ended, and I want to have the reportfile (in this case 1 because it's just 1 loadcase) I normally click in visualization Report->Field output...
There I pick Unique Nodal and S for the stresses. So you know I want to have all the stresses (S11, S22 ...) for each node. But in the report file, I get the stresses for 2 regions (for each layer). There I get a few problems:
2)
I know it is possible to write the stresses into the .dat file. Can someone explain what I have to check and where to click to get this?
I've got a few lines from someone, I can put into the .inp file
With this I get the stresses in my .dat, but only for elements, but I need them for each node! I already tried to write S in that part with "u, cf, uf", but then my job gets aborted.
I hope someone can help me with that!

-I need this file for a Matlab method. This method is at the moment made for 3D solids/ shells with just 1 region. So originally I have just 1 region, and the nodelist goes just like 1, 2, 3, 4,... (downwards with the stresses). But with the shell model the nodelist in the reportfiles goes something like region1: 1, 2, 6, 115, 116, ... || region2: 1, 3, 4, 6,...
So first I'd get to rewrite the Matlab. This won't be a big problem, but as you see, some nodes are in region 1 AND 2, and sometimes the stresses aren't the same at all! (Like: Node 6 in region 1 is 16, node 6 in region 2 is 20.)
So I don't know what stress on this node is.
So here is the question for problem 1:
Is there a way to have a report file from a shell with mulitple layers that just contains 1 region with the usual nodelist (1,2,3,4,5,6...)?

Code:
** OUTPUT REQUESTS
**
*Restart, write, frequency=0
**
** FIELD OUTPUT: F-Output-1
**
*Output, field, variable=PRESELECT
**
** HISTORY OUTPUT: H-Output-1
**
*Output, history, variable=PRESELECT
*EL PRINT, FREQUENCY=1
mises
S
*NODE PRINT, FREQUENCY=1
u
cf
rf
*CONTACT PRINT, FREQUENCY=1
CFN
CFT
*End StepI hope someone can help me with that!
