    Hi Nghiem,

    for Radioss bulk format you have to request the reaction forces. Try,

    ANALYSIS->CONTROL CARDS->GLOBAL_OUTPUT_REQUEST

    Look for SPCF and make a hook. Look in the upper part for SPCFORCE and select your options.

    As example there are the following entry in the .fem deck:

    SPCFORCE(H3D,ALL) = ALL

    Later on, you can show the forces in Hyperview as contour plot (SPCF forces) or (better) as vector plot.

    Regards,

    Mario
