The Element recorder type records the response of a number of elements at every converged step. The response recorded is element-dependent and also depends on the arguments which are passed to the setResponse() element method.
The command to create an element recorder is:
| recorder Element <-file $fileName> <-xml $fileName> <-binary $fileName> <-precision $nSD> <-time> <-dT $deltaT> <-ele ($ele1 $ele2 ...)> <-eleRange $startEle $endEle> <-region $regTag> $arg1 $arg2 ... |
| $fileName | name of file to which output is sent.
file output is either in xml format (-xml option), textual (-file option) or binary (-binary option) |
| $nSD | number of significant digits (optional, default is 6) |
| -time | (optional using this option places domain time in first entry of each data line, default is to have time ommitted) |
| $deltaT | time interval for recording, will record when next step is $deltaT greater than last recorder step. |
| $ele1 $ele2 .. | tags of elements whose response is being recorded -- selected elements in domain (optional, default: omitted) |
| $startEle $endEle .. | tag for start and end elements whose response is being recorded -- range of selected elements in domain (optional, default: omitted) |
| $regTag | previously-defined tag of region of elements whose response is being recorded -- region of elements in domain (optional) |
| $arg1 $arg2 ... | arguments which are passed to the setResponse() element method |
RETURNS
>0 an integer tag that can be used as a handle on the recorder for the remove recorder commmand.
-1 recorder command failed if integer -1 returned.
NOTE:
The setResponse() element method is dependent on the element type, and is described with the Element Command.
EXAMPLE
Example:
recorder Element -file Element1.out -time -ele 1 3 section 1 fiber 0.10 0.10 stressStrain
