How to reduce the result files ?

[bridgehl]

Hi all,

In my output result files, I took many informations in every time steps. So, now my result files are too large to store. In addition, my analyses take a long time to finish, so I cannot re-run these problems.

Is there any way to remove some of the undesired informations from the result files?

Any recommendations are highly appreciated. Thank you.

Yep there sure is. Take a look at these three commands:

/AUX3
FILEAUX3
DELETE

@Stringmaker: thank you for your reply. Now I can solve my problem partially.

In my outputs, I took many unused nodes and elements. Is it possible to delete them from the result files?

I have checked all the /AUX3 commands. However, these commands seem to work on the SET only.

Regards,
Bridge

Hello,

you can use the command outres. This will give you the possibility to completly suppress the output or define a component of elements or nodes to restrict the output just for that component.
