Hello, everybody. I am conducting dynamic explicit analysis in order to find ultimate bending resistance of a channel section beam. I made a free body cut and i can clearly see the peak in the moment-time diagram, but that value is not what i have expected. I am wondering is there any other way to find the desired value? Maybe integrating NFORC or SF, SM? If anybody has an idea, please, let me know.
 
You can try the old-school way: For Explicit that means using integrated output with the output variables SOF and SOM.

See Abaqus Analysis Users Guide 4.1.3 Output to the output database - Integrated output
and 4.2.2 Abaqus/Explicit output variable identifiers - Integrated variables
