output file with displaced coordinates?

output file with displaced coordinates?

output file with displaced coordinates?

(OP)
Hi,

i use ABQUS CEA and i work on a model with a couple of 1000 nodes.
is there a way of creating an output file (or something similar) with the coordinates of all the nodes? i need the coordinates (not displacment) of all nodes after a temperature step....

thx a lot for your help!

RE: output file with displaced coordinates?

if you don't want to be bothered with .inp file from a text editor, you can also add the card whithin CAE through Keyword Editor (see meniu)
*Node Print [freq=99999 - optional]
U

If you adjust your deck from a text editor, and then run it with CAE, you won't get the anything in .dat file (at least in 6.4) as that card is not supported with CAE.
