ABAQUS Volume II: I–Z - Manual (Page 396)

*SECTION PRINT
average rigid body motion of the surface section. This parameter is relevant only if AXES=LOCAL
and the NLGEOM parameter is active in the step.
Optional data lines:
First line:
1. Node number of the anchor point (blank if coordinates given).
2. First coordinate of the anchor point (ignored if node number given).
3. Second coordinate of the anchor point (ignored if node number given).
4. Third coordinate of the anchor point (for three-dimensional cases only; ignored if node number
given).
Leave this line blank to allow ABAQUS to define the anchor point.
Second line:
1. Node number used to specify point a in Figure 18.5–1 (blank if coordinates given).
2. First coordinate of point a (ignored if node number given).
3. Second coordinate of point a (ignored if node number given).
The remaining data items are relevant only for three-dimensional cases.
4. Third coordinate of point a (ignored if node number given).
5. Node number used to specify point b (blank if coordinates given)
6. First coordinate of point b (ignored if node number given).
7. Second coordinate of point b (ignored if node number given).
8. Third coordinate of point b (ignored if node number given).
Leave this line blank to allow ABAQUS to define the axes.
Third line:
1. Give the identifying keys for the variables to be output. The keys are defined in the “Section
variables” section of “ABAQUS/Standard output variable identifiers,” Section 4.2.1 of the
ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual.
Omit both the first and second data lines for AXES=GLOBAL or to allow ABAQUS to define the anchor
point and the axes for AXES=LOCAL. Repeat the third data line as often as necessary: each line defines
a table. If this line is omitted, all appropriate variables (“Output to the data and results files,” Section 4.1.2
of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual) will be output.
