D3PLOT 22.1

Complete State (Plot) File

<name>.ptf or d3plot
This file contains the undeformed geometry of the model, followed by complete dumps of its current geometry. It contains information about:
Nodes:	Coordinates, velocities, accelerations, temperatures.
Solids:	Stresses, strains, (extra data).
Beams:	Forces, moments, plastic rotations, plastic strains.
Thin shells:	Stresses, strains, force & moment resultants, strain energy density, thickness, (extra data).
Thick shells:	Stresses, strains, (extra data).
"Global" data:	Material energies, masses and velocities; normal force on stonewalls.

The file also contains information about deleted elements if the relevant material models and/or contact surfaces are used.
