*NodalResult()

The nodal result to be contoured.

Syntax

*NodalResult (result_index, component)

Application

HyperView

Inputs

result_index
An integer indicating the zero-based index of the nodal result to be contoured. The first nodal result has an index of zero, the second nodal result has an index of one, and so on.
component
And integer indicating the result component to be contoured.
1
Contour the x component.
2
Contour the y component.
3
Contour the z component.
-1
Contour the overal magnitude.

Context

*BeginContour()

*SelectionInfo()

Example

*BeginContour()
• • •
   *SelectionInfo()
     *NodalResult(1, -1)
   *EndSelectionInfo()
• • •
*EndContour()

Comments

*NodalResult() can appear in a *SelectionInfo() block only. It cannot be used if *ElementalResult() or *ElementSelection() appears in the *SelectionInfo() block.

Displacement is not counted when considering the index of the nodal result to be contoured. To contour displacement, see *Displacement().
