This option is used to write whole model or element set energy requests to the output database. It must be used in conjunction with the *OUTPUT, HISTORY option.
Products: Abaqus/Standard Abaqus/Explicit Abaqus/CFD Abaqus/CAE
Type: History data
Level: Step
Abaqus/CAE: Step module
Set this parameter equal to the name of the element set for which this output request is being made.
Set VARIABLE=ALL to indicate that all energy variables applicable to this procedure and material type should be written to the output database.
Set VARIABLE=PRESELECT to indicate that the default energy output variables for the current procedure type should be written to the output database. Additional output variables can be requested on the data lines.
If this parameter is omitted and no energy variables are specified on the data lines, all energy variables will be written to the output database.
This parameter applies only to Abaqus/Explicit analyses.
Include this parameter to indicate that the requested energy variables are written to the output database for each user-defined element set (all internal element sets, including the internal element sets defined in Abaqus/CAE and the internal element sets created during the analysis, are excluded).
This parameter applies only to Abaqus/Explicit analyses.
Include this parameter to indicate that the requested energy variables are written to the output database for every user-defined element set that is associated with a section definition (all internal element sets, including the internal element sets defined in Abaqus/CAE and the internal element sets created during the analysis, are excluded).
First line:
Specify the identifying keys for the variables to be written to the output database. The keys are defined in “Output variables,” Section 4.2 of the Abaqus Analysis User's Guide.
Repeat this data line as often as necessary to define the energy variables to be written to the output database.
