I performed quasi-static analysis on gears in ABAQUS. After analysis, I extracted the U3 parameter to measure the gear rotation. What is the unit deg or rad? I am confused.
Similarly, when I rotate the gear, I enter the values in degree. But I am not sure whether ABAQUS is considering it as radian. Would you please clarify both of these doubts? Thank you.

U3 is translation along the z-direction. It is measured as a length in whatever consistent unit system you are applying in your models.
UR3 is rotation around the z-axis. It is measured in radians.
