The Node type records the displacement, velocity, acceleration and incremental displacement at the nodes (translational & rotational)
recorder Node <-file $fileName> <-time> <-node ($node1 $node2 ...)> <-nodeRange $startNode $endNode> <-region $RegionTag> <-node all> -dof ($dof1 $dof2 ...) $respType
$fileName |
file where results are stored. Each line of the file contains the result for a committed state of the domain (optional, default: screen output) |
|
-time |
this argument will place the pseudo time of the as the first entry in the line. (optional, default: omitted) |
|
$node1 $node2 ... |
tags nodes where response is being recorded -- select nodes in domain (optional, default: all) |
|
$startNode $endNode |
tag for start and end nodes where response is being recorded -- range of nodes in domain (optional, default: all) |
|
$RegionTag |
tag for previously-defined selection of nodes defined using the Region command. (optional) |
|
all |
where response is being recorded -- all nodes in domain (optional & default) |
|
$dof1 $dof2 ... |
degrees of freedom of response being recorded. Valid range is from 1 through ndf , the number of nodal degrees-of-freedom. |
|
$respType |
defines response type to be recorded. The following response types are available: |
|
|
disp |
displacement |
|
vel |
velocity |
|
accel |
acceleration |
|
incrDisp |
incremental displacement |
|
"eigen i" |
eigenvector for mode i |
|
reaction |
nodal reaction |
NOTE: $respType must be the last argument in this command.
Do not forget the double quote in the eigen response type.
Example:
recorder Node -file nodeDisp.out –time –node 1 5 -nodeRange 10 25 -dof 2 disp
recorder Node -file node34.eig -time -node 3 4 -dof 1 2 3 "eigen 2"
recorder Node -file Rnode.out -time -node 1 3 5 -dof 1 2 reaction
