Applied Structure Engine Output Specification ( Stand 1993) (1) OUTPUT DIRECTORY TREE The engine places output files in a directory called STUDY, where STUDY is the name of the design study, and in subdirectories called ANLYS1, ANLYS2, ..., where ANLYS1, ANLYS2, ... are the names of the analyses. For dynamic time and frequency analyses more files may be placed in ANLYS1/STEPn for each time or frequency step with full postprocessing, where n corresponds to the master interval number in the analysis definition. For shock response, files will be placed in ANLYS1/SHOCK. A design study has one or more analyses. An analysis has one constraint set and one or more load sets or modes. A schematic representation of the output tree structure is shown below: STUDY | /^ / | / | / | / | / | / | / | / | study.err ANLYS1 study.rpt | ------------------------------- SHOCK study.stt | ------------ STEPn | study.pnu study.neu | | study.dia study.d## | study.d01 study.pas study.s## study.d## study.s01 study.hst study.r## study.s## study.p01 study.a## study.p## study.a01 study.f## study.a## study.n01 study.t## study.v## study.cnv study.w## study.res study.x## study.l## study.y## study.g## study.n## study.opt study.h## study.ter study.i## study.coe study.j## study.tld study.k## study.p## study.m## study.n## study.q## study.c## study.mor study.buc The list of files shown above is the list of all possible output files. Some of these files may not be created depending on the analysis options, analysis type and design study type. (2) DISPLACEMENT/STRESS, TEMPERATURE/FLUX POST-PROCESSING FILES A uniform grid is created and layed on top of the geometric element model for the purpose of post-processing. This grid splits up the geometric elements into smaller regions of the same kind: quadrilateral geometric elements are split up into quadrilateral regions, brick geometric elements are split up into brick regions, e.t.c.. The only exception are tetrahedral geometric elements that are split up into tetrahedral and octahedral regions. In this document the geometric elements are referred to as "p-elements" while the regions defined by the grid are referred to as "h-elements". The nodes that are part of the geometric element model are referred to as "p-nodes" while the nodes of the grid are referred to as "h-nodes". Note that the "h-nodes" that are also "p-nodes" are numbered consistently in both sets. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: study/study.pnu :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: "p-nodes" pnod "p-elements" pnel iel iej nod1 nod2 nod3 nod4 nod5 nod6 nod7 nod8 iel iej nod1 nod2 nod3 nod4 nod5 nod6 nod7 nod8 iel iej nod1 nod2 nod3 nod4 nod5 nod6 nod7 nod8 " "...
