Sample liner responses. The nodes of an element will be ordered counterclockwise with respect to the outside of the zone faces upon which the liner was created.

The element to be sampled must be identified by either component-id or by position. If position v is used, the element nearest to v is taken.

For some history types, the node of the element to be sampled may be specified optionally with the keyword node i (where i = 1, 2, or 3). If node is omitted, node 1 is used by default.

For some history types, the side of an embedded liner element may be specified with the keyword side i (where i = 1 or 2). If side is omitted, side 1 is used by default.

For resultant histories, the surface system corresponds with the given value of Surface-X v (i.e., each time a stress-resultant history is sampled, the logic of the structure liner recover surface command is invoked using that vector for the specified element). Surface-X v is required for these histories.

For stress histories, stresses are computed at a shell depth given by Depth-Factor f as follows. The shell depth equals Ft/2, where F is the depth factor and t is the shell thickness. F equal to +1/-1 corresponds with the outer/inner shell surface (outer surface defined by positive shell z-direction), and F = 0 corresponds with the shell mid-surface.

coupling-displacement-normal [linerhistoryoptions]

displacement in the normal coupling spring at a node of the element. Sign convention for a normal spring is +/-, indicating separation/overlap. This option uses the node and side keywords.

coupling-displacement-shear [linerhistoryoptions]

displacement in the shear coupling spring at a node of the element. Shear springs store displacement magnitude, and this is always positive. This option uses the node and side keywords.

coupling-stress-normal [linerhistoryoptions]

stress in the normal coupling spring at a node of the element. The sign convention for normal spring is +/-, indicating separation/overlap. This option uses the node and side keywords.

coupling-stress-shear [linerhistoryoptions]

stress in the shear coupling spring at a node of the element. This option uses the node and side keywords.

coupling-yield [linerhistoryoptions]

yield state in the coupling spring at a node of the element. Value {0, 1, 2} denotes never yielded, now yielding, or yielded in the past, respectively. This option uses the node and side keywords.
