    Participation Factors in each direction and for each nodes

    Is it possible to extract the Participation Factors in all directions (X,Y,Z) and for all nodes in ABAQUS? for instance, when the beam is diveded by 10 linear elements, and has consequently 11 nodes, is it possible to get the PF for each node in each direction? ridbay
