I am trying to plot nodal forces of MPC184 elements in ANSYS Mechanical. In workbench, there is a neat feature (or parameter) called ENFOVECTORS that can be sourced using "user defined results" which shows nodal forces as vectors/arrows. Unfortunately, MPC184 elements can't be grabbed using named selection in workbench since these elements/nodes are created during the solving process. However, the MPC184 nodes can be grabbed using APDL commands.
So, my question is, is there a parameter/ feature, command or similar that can be used to plot nodal force in APDL. Are the nodal forces contained in a parameter somewhere, or do I have to extract them manually using etable or fsum for example?
I already know how to extract the forces to a txt file for external post processing
