help Rec34
ABAQUS radiation output to MATLAB
Syntax
#Rec# = Fil2str('*.fil');
#out# = Rec34(#Rec#)
Description
Read radiation output from the results (*.fil) file generated from
the ABAQUS finite element software. The asterisk (*) is replaced by
the name of the results file. The record key for radiation output is
34 (only in ABAQUS/Standard). See section "Results file output
format" in ABAQUS Analysis User's manual for more details.
The following options with parameters have to be specified in the
ABAQUS input file for the results (*.fil) file to be created and to
contain radiation results:
...
*FILE FORMAT, ASCII
*EL FILE
RAD
...
NOTE: The results file (*.fil) must be placed in the same directory
with the MATLAB source files in order to be processed.
Input parameters
#Rec# (string) is an one-row string containing the ASCII code of the
ABAQUS results (*.fil) file. It is generated by the function
Fil2str.m.
Output parameters
#out# ([#n# x 3]) is a cell array containing the attributes of
the record key 34 as follows:
Column 1 – Type.
Column 2 – Sink temperature.
Column 3 – Radiation constant.
where #n# is the number of elements multiplied by the number of
integration points multiplied by the number of increments. If the
results file does not contain the desired output, #out# will be
an empty array
