*NODE PRINT

14.11 *NODE PRINT: Deﬁne print requests for nodal variables.

This option is used to provide tabularprinted output of nodal variables (displacements, reaction forces, etc.)

in the data ﬁle.

Product: ABAQUS/Standard

Type: History data

Level: Step

Reference:

•“Output to the data and results ﬁles,” Section4.1.2 of the ABAQUS Analysis User ’sManual

Optional parameters:

FREQUENCY

Set this parameter equal to the output frequency in increments. The output will always be printed

at the last increment of each step unless FREQUENCY=0. The default is FREQUENCY=1. Set

FREQUENCY=0 to suppress the output.

GLOBAL

This parameter is relevant only at nodes where the *TRANSFORM option has been used to deﬁne

a local coordinate system.

Set GLOBAL=NO (default) to obtain printout of vector-valued nodal variables in the local

directions.

SetG LOBAL=YES to obtain printout of vector-valued nodal variables in the glo bal directions.

LAST MODE

This parameter is useful only during eigenvalue extraction for natural frequencies (“Natural

frequency extraction,” Section 6.3.5 of the ABAQUS Analy sis User’s Manual), complex

eigenvalue extraction (“Complex eigenvalue extraction,” Section 6.3.6of the AB AQUS Analysis

User’s Manual), and eigenva lue buckling estimation (“Eigenvalue buckling prediction,”

Section 6.2.3 of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual). Set this parameter equal to the highest

mode number for which output is required.

The default value is LAST MODE=N,whereNis the number of modes extracted. If the

MODE parameter is used, the defaultvalue is LAST MODE=M,whereMis the value of the MODE

parameter.

MODE

This parameter is useful only during natural frequency extraction, comple x eigenvalue extraction,

and eigenvalue buckling estimation. Set this parameter equal to the ﬁrst mode number for which
