*GET Command
*GET Command
(OP)
Hi,
I"m doing minimising deflection of a central hole in plate using ANSYS. To do optimisation, how do I use the *GET command to retrieve a value and store it as a scalar parameter? The value I want to retrieve is the deflection in the Z direction ie the deflection at the central hole.

RE: *GET Command
parameter_name=parameter_to_get(entity_number)
For deflection it is possible to *get the parameter "directly" i.e.
my_deflection_ux=ux(node_number)
Remember to go into /post1 and open the results file/step etc. before issuing this command.
