Hello ,

Im doing a structural analysis on a geometry at ansys mechanical apdl.

After the analysis , i want to print the overall volume of my geometry in order to calculate the total mass. Im using an elastic material with density prop so after the volume calculation i will be able to calculate the total mass of my geometry.

Anyone know how to print the overall elements volume or overall element mass of my project?

I have found these commands :

/POST1

ETAB,volume,VOLU

SSUM

but i dont know if this calculates the overall volume of the geometry or the volume of each element.

Thank you.
