Need Help with Abaqus/Python Script

Submitted by tpflaum7 on

Hi, 

I have a question on reading outputs in Abaqus. Is it possible to select apath using nodes without having to click on each node one at a time? Everytime I close Abaqus the path I create goes away and I have to create it again and again. 

Also, how would I code that into Python for running a script? I have a one inch patch that is a support  and I need the RF values on that patch from every model I run. I have just finished creating my first model and now have to write the code so I can generate all different size platesand thicknesses. I do not want to have to create the path every time I need to read off the results. I also worry that as I change the plate sizes the node values will change and therefore it will not be the same path each time.
