(OP)
Hi all,

I'm trying to extract the forces acting on each element of a twisted plate subjected to centrifugal force. I believe I should be able to do this using the CENTMAG field output, but when I do this there are no results outputted. Why do no results show? Is there a better method of extracting the forces in each element due to centrifugal force?

The type of model I'm using at the moment is a very simple extruded shell with a twist from root to tip of 65 deg. Everything else seems to work and be correct except no element forces are outputted.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
