Results on element nodes

Post by theokart »

Is it possible to write results directly to element nodes in global coordinates ? for instance I have nodal forces (Fx.Fy.Fz) for each solid element but if I use Gauss points (+/- 1) they are printed in local coordinates instead.

In fact results (vector, matrix) can be only specified in global coordinates!!
Nowadays It is not possible to specify results in local coordinates.

What do you mean by gauss-like results are 'printed in local coordinates' ?
