Define Solution Output to the Results File

Request that state variables (SVAR) be written in the ANSYS results (.rst) file in order to view the fiber and matrix indices generated by Helius PFA.

  1. Enter OUTRES,ESOL,NONE in the command prompt. This command suppresses writing all element solutions to the results file and is used to decrease the size of the results file. Depending on the model size, writing all element solutions to the results file will slow down the solution and can create very large files.
  2. Enter OUTRES,SVAR,ALL in the command prompt. This command specifies that all state variables be written to the results file at every substep.
  3. Enter OUTRES,STRS,ALL in the command prompt to view element stresses.
