RESULTLIMITS

Result Limits Output Request

Description: Requests a subcase and global results search for result limits (max/min).

Format:

RESULTLIMITS, sid, ssid, msid, etype, osid, stype, column

Example:

RESULTLIMITS, 3, 4, 6, QUAD, 22, ELEM, 9

Option	Definition	Type	Default
sid	Results limits search set Identification number.	Integer > 0	Required
ssid	Subcase set identification number. Set identification of previously appearing SET command. Only subcases whose identification numbers appear on this SET command will be output. The character variable ALL may be used to specify all subcases. See Remark 2.	Integer > 0 or blank	ALL
msid	Step set identification number. Set identification of previously appearing SET command. Only time, frequency, or load steps whose identification numbers appear on this SET command will be output. The character variable ALL may be used to specify all steps as applicable.	Integer > 0 or blank	ALL
etype	Element type to be searched for within element identification number range, one of the following character variables: Element Results (stype = ELEM, see below) ELAS, WELD, PIPE, CABLE, GAP, BEAM, BAR, ROD, QUAD, TRI, SHEAR, TET, PENT, PYR, HEX, and ALL Grid Point Results (stype = GRID, see below) SHELL, SOLID, or ALL	Character or blank	ALL
osid	Output set identification number. Set identification of previously appearing SET command. Only elements or grid points whose identification numbers appear on this SET command will be output. The character variable ALL may be used to specify all elements or grid points as applicable. See Remark 3.	Integer > 0 or blank	ALL
stype	Output set identification type, one of the following character variables: GRID or ELEM.	Character	ELEM
column	Results column number. See Remark 4.	Integer > 0	Required

Remarks:

1. This command is used for determining results limits (i.e., max/min: stress, force, strain energy, etc.).
2. The subcase set identification number, ssid, will forced to ALL unless the RSLTFILETYPE directive is set to either PATRANBINARY or PATRANASCII.
3. The output set identification type must be consistent with the specified element type.
4. See Appendix A, Results Neutral File Formats, for result column number definition.
