Abaqus Scripting - Extracting 'Unique Nodal' Values as Done in CAE Report

Abaqus Scripting - Extracting 'Unique Nodal' Values as Done in CAE Report

(OP)
Is it possible to extract 'Unique Nodal' values using the scripting interface (rather than through CAE reporting in Report->Field Output dialog)? It seems as if this is not mentioned in the scripting guide. The closest option I can see is ELEMENT_NODAL.

As an example, I want to extract the Unique Nodal values for HFL by:

allelem = odb.rootAssembly.instances['PART-1-1'].elementSets['ALLE']
allnodesHF = heatfluxes.getSubset(region=allelem, position=UNIQUE_NODAL)

However, UNIQUE_NODAL is not defined yet ELEMENT_NODAL is. I am using Abaqus 6.14.

RE: Abaqus Scripting - Extracting 'Unique Nodal' Values as Done in CAE Report

session.writeFieldReport(fileName='C:/Temp/trial', append=OFF,
sortItem='Node Label', odb=odb, step=0, frame=1, outputPosition=NODAL,
variable=(('HFL', INTEGRATION_POINT), ))

Is this what you are looking for?

Cheers
