Syntax

structure shell history <name s > keyword

Primary keywords:

force    force-x    force-y    force-z    ipstress-xx    ipstress-yy    ipstress-xy    moment    moment-x    moment-y    moment-z    resultant-mx    resultant-my    resultant-mxy    resultant-nx    resultant-ny    resultant-nxy    resultant-qx    resultant-qy    stress-intermediate    stress-maximum    stress-minimum    stress-xx    stress-xy    stress-xz    stress-yy    stress-yz    stress-zz

Sample shell responses.

If the optional name keyword is used, then the history can be assigned a name for later reference. If not used, then the history will be assigned a default name based on the internally assigned ID number. The element to be sampled must be identified by either component ID (component-id i) or by position (position v). If position v is used, then the element nearest to v is taken.

For stress and stress resultant histories, the surface coordinate system of the three nodes used by the element must be defined. If it is not already defined, then it can be defined by the structure shell recover surface command, or by specifying the surface-x keyword. Bending and membrane stress resultants from adjoining elements are not averaged at the element nodes.

structure shell history Keyword Block

The following keywords are available to control the location and other details of the history. Some keywords are only available if noted. force, force-x, force-y, force-z, ipstress-xx, ipstress-xy, ipstress-yy, moment, moment-x, moment-y, moment-z, resultant-mx, resultant-mxy, resultant-my, resultant-nx, resultant-nxy, resultant-ny, resultant-qx, resultant-qy, stress-intermediate, stress-maximum, stress-minimum, stress-xx, stress-xy, stress-xz, stress-yy, stress-yz and stress-zz.

component-id ind

the element with component ID ind is selected.

depth-factor f

the depth factor at which elastic element stresses are computed (see the structure shell recover stress command). If this keyword is not specified, then the depth factor is set to +1. Only available if noted.

integration-point ind

the integration point at which stresses are sampled. The integration point locations are shown here. If this keyword is not specified, then the integration point index is set to 1. Only available if noted.

node ind

the node location to use when retrieving values from the element. Must be from 1 to 3. If this keyword is not specified, then the node location is set to 1. Only available if noted.

position v

the element with a centroid closest to v is selected

surface-x v

the surface-x vector whose projection onto the element plane defines the x-direction of the surface coordinate system (see the structure shell recover surface command). If this keyword is specified, then the surface coordinate system of the three nodes used by the element will be modified.
