Database Postprocessing

•*TIMETRACE is used to request the creation of timetrace plots. Specifically,

oTYPE=ELEMENT_ELEMENT_ANGLE is used to request a timetrace of the angle between two elements.

oTYPE=ELEMENT_VECTOR_ANGLE is used to request a timetrace of the angle between an element and a vector.

oTYPE=ELEMENT_AXIS_ANGLE is used to request a timetrace of the angle between an element and an axis system.

oTYPE=VECTOR_VECTOR_ANGLE is used to request a timetrace of the angle between two vectors.

Summary Postprocessing

•*PARA ANGLE ELEMENT is used to request summary output of the angle between two elements.

•*PARA ANGLE AXIS is used to request summary output of the angle between an element and either a vector or an axis system.
