write data with abaqus

[fentasio]

hi
I work with abaqus. I would like to write in the data file some elements results. I know how to do when I know the element numbers but now I need all elements of a part or of an instance. Is there an option like all to do that?
thanx in advance.

U can put all the elements of that part in an element set and then request the output of the whole element set. Say for an element set with the name BOLTS you can request the output of the stress for all the elemnts of the set using
*EL FILE, ELSET=BOLTS, FREQ=1
S
*EL PRINT, ELSET=BOLTS, FREQ=1
S

hope this helps
