Hi all!

I am modelling the interaction between a tool and soil body using the Explicit Dynamics module in ANSYS. I have completed a number of analyses and am getting good results for sinkage and pressures in the soil body. However, I would really like to know the reaction loads that are constraining the body of soil. As far as I can tell there is no way of extracting this result from the analysis in the ANSYS mechanical interface.
Any suggestions on how to obtain the reaction forces would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and regards
