Reporting eigenvalues

Reporting eigenvalues

Reporting eigenvalues

(OP)
Hi,


I would like to know how I can report eigenvalues to a txt file.
Currently I'm opening every ODB file to get the eigenvalue by looking at the viewport. If I know how it works in the GUI, I can script it. So does anyone know how this works within the GUI? I can't find anything in history or field output.

RE: Reporting eigenvalues

It should be in the history outputs. From the GUI, the report option would do the trick as well.

RE: Reporting eigenvalues

Look into the .dat after the analysis.

In postprocessing also via Result -> Steps/Frames.

RE: Reporting eigenvalues

(OP)
I couldn't find them (negative) in the msg file but I found them neatly arranged in the DAT file, so I'll write a script for that to extract and report them. this forum has saved me a lot of time smile
