This command is used to obtain the same element quantities as those obtained from the element recorder at a particular time step.
eleResponse $eleTag $arg1 $arg2
$eleTag |
previously-defined element tag |
$arg1, $arg2 |
same arguments as those specified in element recorder. These arguments are specific to the type of element being used. |
For a simple truss example if these are the recorder commands used:
recorder Element -time -ele 1 2 3 -file a.out axialForce
recorder Element -time -ele 1 2 3 -file b.out material stress
then these are the corresponding eleResponse commands
set a [eleResponse 1 forces]
set b [eleResponse 1 material stress]
puts $a
puts $b
