Editing Abaqus results

(OP)
Hi

I'm simulating lamb wave propagation is isotropic plates. There are configurations which I am simulating, a plate with no damage and a plate with through hole damage.

In abaqus, is there a way to take the results of the plate with damage and subtract the results of the plate with no damage? What I want to achieve is to view the wave scatter from the damage like as if the damage was the exciter that initiated the wave signal.

(Both configurations have similar number of nodes and node numbering. The configuration with no damage have 'extra' nodes to patch the location of the through hole damage configuration. So basically, both configurations have the same mesh.)

Regards,
eugenec
