I am working on a transient structural analysis in Ansys Mechanical. I want to export the Nodal reaction force vectors for selected nodes of a part at all the time steps.
Basically, I need a force vs time plots for each of the selected nodes or mesh elements.
I have tried using User Defines Results to obtain ENFOSUM and ENFOVECTORS however the results displayed (force vs time) are just the maximum and minimum force values among the selected nodes/elements. If I export the results then I obtain the force values at each of the selected nodes for a single time step only.
It will be a tedious job to export these nodal results for each time step and then combining them to obtain the force vs time plots for the nodes/elements.
Is there a better and accurate way?
