How can I list nodal coordinates/rotations with additional significant figures?


For nodal coordinates, you can use the NLIST command with "Lcoord" set to "COORD". This will list only the coordinates, with additional significant figures.

For nodal rotations (or coordinates if the above does not print enough significant figures), the data can be stored in an array, then the contents of that array can be listed with additional significant figures. Here is an example:

! get the total number of nodes defined
*GET,num_nodes,NODE,0,NUM,MAXD

! define an array to hold the rotation angles
*DIM,node_rot,ARRAY,num_nodes,3

! store the rotation angles in the array
*VGET,node_rot(1,1),NODE,,ANG,XY
*VGET,node_rot(1,2),NODE,,ANG,YZ
*VGET,node_rot(1,3),NODE,,ANG,ZX

! display the rotations using many sig figs
*VWRITE,SEQU,node_rot(1,1),node_rot(1,2),node_rot(1,3)
(F7.0,3F18.12)
