Example

# von-Mises stress
/H3D/BEAM/VONM
# Specific energy density results for only parts IDs 356 and 293.
/H3D/BEAM/ENER
356 293

Comments

  1. The syntax /H3D/ELEM/Keyword3/Keyword4/Keyword5 is also valid.
  2. When PART IDs are listed after the /H3D/BEAM line, the specified results will only be output for those parts.
  3. The output location in Keyword4 can be defined via:

    NPT = integration points

  4. Output can be requested for a specific location number (I), ALL. The output locations are separated by a forward slash (/) and can be in any order.
