Reporting data values, minimums, maximums, and totals

You have the option to include minimum and maximum value summaries or column totals in reports.

For tabular reports of X–Y data or field output, you can include or suppress X–Y data or field output values, column minimum and maximum value summaries, and column totals. By default, Abaqus/CAE includes only the actual data values in reports of X–Y data. In reports of field output values, Abaqus/CAE includes by default the data values as well as column summaries and totals.

For tabular reports of probe values, Abaqus/CAE always includes the actual data values in the report. You can include or suppress column minimum and maximum value summaries and column totals for any columns in which such values would be meaningful.

Using tabular report options
  1. Locate the Data or Data Values options.

    For a report of X–Y data or field output:

    From the main menu bar, select ReportXY or ReportField Output; then click the Setup tab in the dialog box that appears. The Data options are at the bottom of the page.

    For a report of probe values:

    From the main menu bar, select ToolsQuery, then click Probe values in the dialog box that appears. The Probe Values dialog box appears.

    Move the cursor to probe the model or X–Y plot in the current viewport, then click mouse button 1 to store values of interest in the dialog box. When you are finished, click Write to File. The Report Probe Values dialog box appears; the Data Values options are at the bottom of the dialog box.

  2. For X–Y data reports or field output reports, you must choose one or more of the following items to include in your report. If you generate field output reports in comma-separated value (CSV) format, the options to include column totals and to include a summary of the minimum and maximum values are unavailable.

    • Toggle XY data or Field output to include the actual X–Y data or field output values, respectively. Toggling this option off results in a report that consists of only the column total or min/max data you request.

    • Toggle Column totals to include totals for each column.

    • Toggle Column min/max to include a summary of the minimum and maximum value occurring in each column.

To generate your report, configure the remaining options in the dialog box; then click Apply (for X–Y reports or field output reports) or OK (for probe values reports). When you have finished, click Cancel to close the dialog box.
