Printing only Residual norm in the Terminal with Interactive Solution Command?

[osman]

Dear all,

I have recently installed FEAP 8.5 on my PC running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.  Everything works like a charm except the fact that I can not see the Residual Norms ( that is only terminal output I would like to see)  associated with each Newton iteration in a step when I use NOPRint  in the INTEractive solution. I haven't had any  kind of issues before with the previous versions of FEAP

To be more precise I would like to see something like on the terminal

   Residual norm =     1.2391747E+04    1.0000000E+00      t=     0.10     0.01
   Residual norm =     1.1636245E+02    9.3903183E-03      t=     0.10     0.01
   Residual norm =     2.7485783E-02    2.2180716E-06      t=     0.10     0.01
   Residual norm =     1.5475916E-09    1.2488889E-13      t=     0.10     0.01


Below you can find the input file and the corresponding terminal screenshots of FEAP Example  no:11 (\ex11) obtained by two versions

1- FEAP 8.5
2- FEAP 8.3

As can bee seen in the PNG files attached, the desired is achieved in FEAP 8.3 while it is absolutely not the case with FEAP 8.5. I have tried PRINt,RESI but it didn't work, either.  If I remove NOPRint, then the terminal starts to be overcrowded with other outputs.

I delved into the source codes and found that \program\pmacr1.f files differ from each other, especially line 584 in FEAP 8.5 might be where the problem lies.

I appreciate any kind of help and comments.

Not sure if this will give the behavior you are looking for but try

print,off

followed by

print,on

This will set the printing flags as pfr=.false. and prnt=.true.

[Prof. S. Govindjee]

Seems you can also achieve the equivalent with a single statement

nopr,less

Dear Professor,

Both of your suggestions worked out and I am now able to see only the residual norms.

Thank you very much

Best regards,
