Specify format for results file output and invoke zero-increment results file output.
This option is used to specify the format in which the Abaqus/Standard results file output is written and to invoke zero-increment file output for all valid procedures in the analysis. This option can appear only once in an analysis, and the format cannot be changed upon restart.
Include this parameter to specify that the results file output is to be written in ASCII format. If the FILE FORMAT option is omitted or this parameter is not used, the default is to write a binary file.
ZERO INCREMENT
Include this parameter to specify that results file output should be written at the beginning of a step (the zero increment) for all valid procedures in the analysis. If the FILE FORMAT option is omitted or this parameter is not used, by default output will not be written at the zero increment.
There are no data lines associated with this option.
