Reading a location of a point after analysis
Reading a location of a point after analysis
(OP)
Please i am trying to create and read the position of a point on a part after analysis in ABAQUS/CAE.i am modelling gripping effect.i have 2 metal bars of same size seperated by a rubber like material for the gripping.i have pulled one of the metals at one end while clapped the other bar at the opposite end. after the analysis i have have seen the relative displacement between the bars. however, i want to measure this dispalcement by setting a point on one of the bars and read-out the position,or is there a better way to achieve this? please, can somebody assist me?





RE: Reading a location of a point after analysis
In ABAQUS/CAE you can measure the exact relative distance between two nodes by selecting:
Tools -> Query -> Distance
Just select two nodes and you should be set.
Good luck,
Dave
