*SUBSTRUCTURE MATRIX OUTPUT
18.43 *SUBSTRUCTURE MATRIX OUTPUT: Write a substructure’s recovery matrix,
reduced stiffness matrix, mass matrix, load case vectors, and gravity load vectors
to a file.
This option is used to write a substructure’s recovery matrix, reduced stiffness matrix, mass matrix, load case
vectors, and gravity load vectors to a file. It can be used only in a *SUBSTRUCTURE GENERATE analysis.
Product: ABAQUS/Standard
Type: History data
Level: This option is not supported in a model defined in terms of an assembly of part instances.

Optional parameters:
FILE NAME
This parameter is intended for use with OUTPUT FILE=USER DEFINED.
Set this parameter equal to the name of the file (without an extension) to which the data will be
written. The extension .mtx will be added to the file name provided by the user; see “Input syntax
rules,” Section 1.2.1 of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual, for the syntax of such file names.
If the OUTPUT FILE parameter is omitted or set equal to RESULTS FILE, use of the FILE
NAME parameter overrides the OUTPUT FILE setting; the data will be written to the named file,
not to the results (.fil) file. If OUTPUT FILE=ODB, the FILE NAME parameter is ignored and
the data will be written to the output database (.odb) file.
GRAVITY LOAD
Set GRAVITY LOAD=YES to write the substructure gravity load vectors (only available if the
gravity load vectors are requested with the *SUBSTRUCTURE GENERATE option). The default
is GRAVITY LOAD=NO.
MASS
Set MASS=YES to write the substructure mass matrix (only available if the mass matrix is requested
with the *SUBSTRUCTURE GENERATE option). The default is MASS=NO.
OUTPUT FILE
Set OUTPUT FILE=RESULTS FILE (default) to write the data to the results (.fil) file in the
format specified in “Results file output format,” Section 5.1.2 of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s
Manual.
