DiagnosticPrint(...)
This method creates a DiagnosticPrint object.
Path
mdb.models[name].steps[name].DiagnosticPrint
Required arguments
None.
Optional arguments
- allke
A Boolean specifying a request for a column containing the total kinetic energy. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Explicit analysis. The default value is ON.
- criticalElement
A Boolean specifying a request for a column containing the element that has the smallest stable time increment and a column listing the value. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Explicit analysis. The default value is ON.
- dmass
A Boolean specifying a request for a column containing the percent change in total mass of the model as a result of mass scaling. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Explicit analysis. The default value is OFF unless mass scaling is present in the model.
- etotal
A Boolean specifying a request for a column containing the energy balance of the model. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Explicit analysis. The default value is OFF.
- contact
A Boolean specifying a request for detailed output of points that are contacting or separating in interface and gap problems. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Standard analysis. The default value is ON.
- modelChange
A Boolean specifying a request for detailed output of which elements are being removed or reactivated in the step. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Standard analysis. The default value is OFF.
- plasticity
A Boolean specifying a request for detailed output of element and integration point numbers for which the plasticity algorithms have failed to converge in the material routines. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Standard analysis. The default value is OFF.
- residual
A Boolean specifying a request for output of equilibrium residuals during the equilibrium iterations. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Standard analysis. The default value is ON.
- frequency
An Int specifying the frequency of output, in increments. The default value is 1.
- solve
A Boolean specifying a request for information regarding the actual number of equations and the wavefront in each iteration. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Standard analysis. The default value is ON.
- mass
A Boolean specifying a request for a column containing the total mass of the model as a result of mass scaling. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Explicit analysis. The default value is OFF.
Return value
A DiagnosticPrint object.
Exceptions
None.
