Title: Cell data
Post by: dolesch on September 03, 2018, 12:48:57 AM

Good morning all,

I have a question concerning the output of data in cellarray format. I want to write cell data form my element routine in form of cell data output. How can acomplish that with an umacr file?

Thanks in advance

Darius

I assume you want to input the data into Matlab??  If so all  you have to do is write the data as numbers in a file and then
load the file from matlab.  so if you write to a filnamed "myfile" as an array of numbers
   v11  v12   v13
   v21   v22   v23
   v31   v32   v33  etc.

Then in your matlab program you say

load myfile

v1 = myfile(:,1);
v2 = myfile(:,2);
v3 = myfile(:,3):

Is this what you want?

Thanks for your answer, but I found the solution(writing in the mr-field and output per umacr in vtu format)

Another questions I have,
 is there a way in feap to create paths(as an output region like in ansys)?

No, but you may be able to adapt the plot command to do it.

Look at SPLOt for example. It only works in 2-d

Good idea
