**process max

Description

This post computation gives at each node or Gauss point, the maximum value of a variable in the course of time. One output is produced for the totality of the time period for each variable specified.

Syntax

**process max \(~\,\) *list_var name1 … nameN

The names name1, …, nameN designate the list of scalar variables to treat. Outputs appearing in the file problem.utp will be named MAX_name1, …, MAX_nameN.

Example

% compute the maximum value of the U1 and U2 displacements
**process max
  *list_var U1 U2

% compute von Mises invariant of the stress tensor, ...
**process mises
  *var sig
% ... then its maximum value
**process max
  *list_var mises

**process fmax

Description

This post computation produces for each variable specified an output per “map” of time, which corresponds to the maximum value achieved in the loading instant.

Syntax

**process fmax \(~\,\) *list_var name1 … nameN

The names name1, …, nameN designate the scalar variables to be treated. The output names which are generated will be of the form FMAX_name1, …, FMAX_nameN (see the file problem.utp).

Example

% this will provide FMAX_U1 and FMAX_U2
**process fmax
  *list_var U1 U2

**process min

Description

This post computation gives at each node or Gauss point, the minimum value of a variable in the course of time. One output is produced for the totality of the time period for each variable specified.

Syntax

**process min \(~\,\) *list_var name1 … nameN

The names name1, …, nameN designate the list of scalar variables to treat. Outputs appearing in the file problem.utp will be named MIN_name1, …, MIN_nameN.

Example

% compute the minimum value of the temperature
**process min
  *list_var TP

% compute eigenvalues of the stress tensor, ...
**process eigen2
  *var sig
% 3 new variables are now available for the processing,
% sigp3 <= sigp2 <= sigp1
% ... then the minimum value of the two smaller ones
**process min
  *list_var sigp2 sigp3

**process fmin

Description

This post computation produces for each variable specified an output per “map” of time, which corresponds to the minimum value achieved up to each loading instant.

Syntax

**process fmin \(~\,\) *list_var name1… nameN

The names name1, …, nameN designate the scalar variables to be treated. The output names which are generated will be of the form FMIN_name1, …, FMIN_nameN (see the file problem.utp).

Example

% this will provides FMIN_TP
**process fmin
  *list_var TP
