Batch mode - reaction results

Batch mode - reaction results

Batch mode - reaction results

(OP)
Hello,

I need some help. I have been using ANSYS for some time to solve simple structures but always used the GUI. I need to run ANSYS from the batch mode. I have a simple structure defined in APDL. I am able to run and solve it in batch mode but I don't know how to retrieve the results I need. I want the reaction forces at the supports. Ideally it would be good if ANSYS could write these to a file. Is there anyway to do this? I know how to do it using the GUI it is simple (list results->Reaction solution etc...) I just don't know the correct commands to enter in APDL to save the results.

Thank you!
