Integrated Variables

You can request integrated variable output to the output database. The output quantity is computed by integration over a surface or an element set that is specified either directly in the integrated output request or by associating an integrated output section definition or an element set definition with the integrated output request.

The components of the vector output variables are given with respect to a global coordinate system when no integrated output section definition is associated with the integrated output request. When an integrated output section is associated with the integrated output request and a local coordinate system is defined for the integrated output section, the components are given in the local system. The local system will rotate with the deformation if a reference node with rotation degrees of freedom is associated with the section definition.

The output variables listed below are available in Abaqus/Explicit.

SOAREA
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Area of the surface as projected onto a plane normal to the average surface normal.

SOF
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Total force transmitted through the surface.

SOM
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Total moment transmitted through the surface. The moment of the forces transmitted through the surface is taken about the current location of the reference node if one is specified on an integrated output section and is associated with the integrated output request. The moment is taken about the global origin either if no section definition is associated with the integrated output request or if there is no reference node defined in the associated section definition.

MASS
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Total mass of the element set.

DMASS
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Total mass change in percentage of the element set due to mass scaling.

UCOM
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Equivalent rigid-body translational displacement of the element set.

VCOM
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Equivalent rigid-body translational velocity of the element set.

ACOM
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Equivalent rigid-body translational acceleration of the element set.

COORDCOM
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Coordinates of the center of mass of the element set.

MASSEUL
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Total mass of each Eulerian material instance in the element set.

VOLEUL
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Total volume of each Eulerian material instance in the element set.

PAVG
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Pressure averaged over the total volume of each Eulerian material instance in the element set.

TAVG
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Temperature averaged over the total mass of each Eulerian material instance in the element set.

PDMASS
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Generated mass of a discrete particle element set.

PDVRMS
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

RMS velocity of a discrete particle element set.

PDTEMP
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Average temperature of a lumped gas particle species.

PDPAVG
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Average pressure of a lumped gas particle species.

PDPGAUGE
.fil: no   .odb Field: no   .odb History: yes  

Average gauge pressure of a lumped gas particle species.
