Integrated Variables

You can request integrated variable output to the output database. The output quantity is computed by integration over a surface or an element set that is specified either directly in the integrated output request or by associating an integrated output section definition or an element set definition with the integrated output request.

The components of the vector output variables are given with respect to a global coordinate system when no integrated output section definition is associated with the integrated output request. When an integrated output section is associated with the integrated output request and a local coordinate system is defined for the integrated output section, the components are given in the local system. The local system will rotate with the deformation if a reference node with rotation degrees of freedom is associated with the section definition.

The output variables listed below are available in Abaqus/Explicit.

SOAREA
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Area of the surface as projected onto a plane normal to the average surface normal.

SOF
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Total force transmitted through the surface.

SOM
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Total moment transmitted through the surface. The moment of the forces transmitted through the surface is taken about the current location of the reference node if one is specified on an integrated output section and is associated with the integrated output request. The moment is taken about the global origin either if no section definition is associated with the integrated output request or if there is no reference node defined in the associated section definition.

MASS
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Total mass of the element set.

DMASS
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Total mass change in percentage of the element set due to mass scaling.

UCOM
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Equivalent rigid-body translational displacement of the element set.

VCOM
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Equivalent rigid-body translational velocity of the element set.

ACOM
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Equivalent rigid-body translational acceleration of the element set.

COORDCOM
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Coordinates of the center of mass of the element set.

MASSEUL
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Total mass of each Eulerian material instance in the element set.

VOLEUL
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Total volume of each Eulerian material instance in the element set.

PAVG
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Pressure averaged over the total volume of each Eulerian material instance in the element set.

TAVG
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Temperature averaged over the total mass of each Eulerian material instance in the element set.

PDMASS
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

Generated mass of a discrete particle element set.

PDVRMS
Field: no  History: yes  .fil: no  

RMS velocity of a discrete particle element set.

PDTEMP
