Post-processing of a h3d file

How can I extract the output data (stress) at each integration point in CSV format (Excel table) from the .h3d calculation result file?

Thanks

Hi @KOUAMI,

You can use the Plots tool in HyperView and choose to plot Stress by Elements.

Then you can export the plot as a CSV using File » Export » Curves » CSV Blocks.

Hope this helps!

Hello, thank you for your reply it is very helpful. But i have a second question:

is it possible to write a macro to automated post-processing?

Best regards

Hi @KOUAMI,

Yes, this should be entirely possible with the help of Tcl or Python commands.

I would check out the Altair Exchange page to see if any scripts have already been uploaded with a similar purpose, or to take pieces from each script to accomplish your goal.

Another option would be to save the Session as a Flexible Report, to which you can use it as a template to automate the setup as well.

Hope this helps!
