help Rec10
ABAQUS nodal flux caused by heat output to MATLAB
Syntax
#Rec# = Fil2str('*.fil');
#out# = Rec10(#Rec#)
Description
Read nodal flux (caused by heat) 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 nodal
flux output is 10 (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 nodal flux results:
...
*FILE FORMAT, ASCII
*EL FILE
NFLUX
...
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 #m#]) is a double array containing the attributes of
the record key 10 as follows:
Column 1 – Node number.
Column 2 – First flux component.
Column 3 – Etc.
where #n# is the number of nodes and #m# is the number of nodal
flux components of each element. If the results file does not
contain the desired output, #out# will be an empty array
