Hi guys,
i'm trying to get mechanica to give me the exact position of the nodes of specific modes.
Any idea?

thanks

 
I had this same problem a few months ago.

Under Analysis Settings/Analysis Data Management change "Save MAPDL db" to "Yes".

Then open the *.db file in ANSYS APDL and list the nodes

 
Thanks rcfanatic

I think you're pointing me to the mesh nodes, what I'm looking for are the Nodes od the Mode, ie the points of minimum (=0 in theory) displacement for a specific mode
