Hello dear all,
please help. I need to record the maximum node displacement value. for some reason, I want only the maximum value, not envelope values. I tried to use this command but it doesn't work.
recorder MaxNodeDisp -file ND16.out -dof 1 -node 16
Thanks

Re: Maximum Node Displacement
you either have to look after the variable in your script, i.e. monitor the nodal displacements and write to a file when done, or use the EnvelopeRecorder. What is wrong with using the EnvelopeRecorder?
you could also use the Envelope recorder, isssue a remove recorders command when analysis is done, then open the output file, parse the values and write aopther file as another option.
