I am using a custom constitutive relation through the USERMAT architecture. I created my USERMAT with the TB,USER command and I also needed to create a series of state variables that are constantly updated by ANSYS. At a specific moment of the simulation and at a precise location, I need to know the value of a state variable. Similarly to a previous thread (thread569-177259), it would also be nice to do a contour-plot of the state variable. Does anyone knows how to extract from the database the value of a state variable with an APDL command ?
Thanks in advance
