import RHS for all time steps without exiting solution processor

[lschuler1]

Hi,

I would like to import the RHS vector for each time step, without exiting the solution processor. The problem is that when I use multiple cores, I need to combine the files with the mapdl.combine('full') command which is only valid in the aux2 processor. Would it possible to store the RHS vector for all the time steps into .full files, and then to retrieve these objects in a postprocessing phase?

Thanks,
Louis

Hi @lschuler1 You want the applied force vector for each time step? Mike

Hi @mikerife Yes that's what I would like to have. The problem is non linear so at each time step the right hand side vector is the residual force calculated with the displacement of the previous time step. So it is not proportional to the RHS vector of the first time step.

Hi @lschuler1 @germa89 I'm going to "answer" this in discussion #1232
