export the co-ordinates of the integration points???
Sun, 2011-01-23 13:59 - Gamal
Hi my friends,
I want to export both the stresses and the co-ordinates (x,y,z) at the
integration points using Abaqus CAE. I know how to get the stresses at the nodes
(unique nodal ) by using Visulaization module then report then unique nodal. But
when i try to report the stresses at the integration points, i did not find the
co-ordinates at the integration points as one of the output. I find only the
unique nodal.
Thanks alot,
Gamal

export the co-ordinates of the integration points???
I have exactly the same questions. I seem to be unable to find the coordinates of the integration points. Anyone knows how to solve this?
Best regards,

integration point coordinates
Hello
see manual chapter "4.2.1 Abaqus/Standard output variable identifiers"
section "Element integration point variables"
Geometric quantities
COORD
Coordinates of the integration point for solid elements and rebar. These are the current coordinates if the large-displacement formulation is being used.
.dat: yes .fil: yes .odb Field: yes .odb History: yes
and likewise for Abaqus Explicit
If you do not use the "large-displacement formulation" you might have to extract the node coordinates and compute the integration point coordinates using the shape functions.
Good luck
