Request that state variables be written to the results file for viewing.
Helius PFA uses ANSYS state variables to store information about the fiber and matrix at each integration point in the model. To view the state variables in ANSYS, the state variables (SVAR) must be written to the results (.rst) file.
Directly below the CNVTOL command, enter the following command:
OUTRES,SVAR,ALL
This command specifies that all state variables are to be written to the results file at every substep.
Below this command, enter the following commands. These commands allow for the reaction force to be computed.
