Visualize in Vector format

[LearnerAbq]

Hi Everyone,

I have developed a user element in ABAQUS, which has additional degrees of freedom nt 11 to 13. I would like to plot the solution of these 3 additional DOFs in a vector format. What is the easiest way to do that in ABAQUS? Thanks so much for your valuable answers.

Did you try requesting nodal output of NT11 - NT13 variables in the input file ?

Thanks for your reply. I'm getting nodal output of the variables. However, these are three scalars and I'm searching for an easy way to plot them as a vector, in the form : a=(nt11, nt12, nt13)
