Integration Point Outputs

[muhammedfurkanyilmaz]

Dear @Kratos/Geomechanics,

How can I get the Integration point results over time?

Kind Regards

Hi @muhammedfurkanyilmaz,

Via the output_processes, you can specify which variables you would like to output. For the integration point results, you can specify the gauss_point_results. Here is an example of a gid_output process, which writes the results to an ASCII file. This will output the values through time of all integration points:

"output_processes": {
        "gid_output": [{
            "python_module": "gid_output_process",
            "kratos_module": "KratosMultiphysics",
            "process_name": "GiDOutputProcess",
            "Parameters":    {
                "model_part_name": "PorousDomain.porous_computational_model_part",
                "output_name": "1D-DynamicLoading_stage1",
                "postprocess_parameters": {
                    "result_file_configuration": {
                        "gidpost_flags":       {
                            "WriteDeformedMeshFlag": "WriteUndeformed",
                            "WriteConditionsFlag":   "WriteElementsOnly",
                            "GiDPostMode":           "GiD_PostAscii",
                            "MultiFileFlag":         "SingleFile"
                        },
                        "file_label":          "step",
                        "output_control_type": "step",
                        "output_frequency":    1,
                        "body_output":         true,
                        "node_output":         true,
                        "skin_output":         false,
                        "plane_output":        [],
                        "nodal_results":       ["DISPLACEMENT","WATER_PRESSURE","ACCELERATION"],
                        "gauss_point_results": ["CAUCHY_STRESS_TENSOR","TOTAL_STRESS_TENSOR","GREEN_LAGRANGE_STRAIN_TENSOR"]
                    },
                    "point_data_configuration":  []
                }
            }
        }]
    }

It should also be possible to get vtk results in a similar way (although I haven't used that functionality myself yet and it might only be possible to get results at the nodes in that case, but I'm not sure about that). Let me know if you would like help with that, then I'll take a further look.

Kind regards,
Richard
