**process average_around#

Description#

This post processor calculates an average around each integration point in an element set and assigns this average value to each integration point.

Syntax#

**process average_around \(~\,\) *length value \(~\,\) *list_var name1 … nameN [ *economic ] [ *axi ]

*length value

is the distance to take into account around each integration point to make the average.

*list_var name1, … nameN

are the scalar variable names to average. The output variable names are generated by adding the prefix aa_ to each input variable name.

*economic

is a flag to get integration points coordinates when needed instead of storing all of them in memory.

*axi

for axisymmetric problems. This option is not compatible with *economic.

Example#

% this will provide aa_epcum
**process average_around
  *list_var epcum
  *length 1.5
