Hi all,

There is something very strange with Ansys. I can get the ux (x
displacement) and uy (y displacement) of selected nodes with de code:
*get,ux,node,k,u,x

but when I want to get the Strain-total Von Mises (EPTO-EQV) with the
code:
*get,ux,node,k,EPTO,EQV

There is an error message which says that It can't find some nodes in
the nodes selected.
If you have already seen this problem, I will be very curious to know
why It is not possible to get Strain-Von Mises of these nodes.

Thanks a lot.

Cedric.

Cedric:

You are probably using elements with midside nodes. Stress and strain
results are not stored at these nodes. Use NSLE,S,CORNER to select the
corner nodes prior to doing your *GETs.

Regards,

Dave
