D3PLOT 22.1

Nodal Data Components

Nodal data components

Ansys LS-DYNA writes nodal results to the .PTF and .CTF files. All directional results are in the global cartesian system except accelerations at nodes classified as accelerometers.

D3PLOT is able to plot nodal data on 2D and 3D elements by averaging across their faces.

It will process scalar nodal data, element data averaged at nodes and other geometrical data in the WRITE and XY_PLOT menus.
