Dear all,

I am new to Python scripting for Odb manipulation so I hope to do not appear silly when asking the following question.

I wrote a code that identify the element ID where the maximum PEEQ (but can be any field output) and return the ID. The next step in my script should be the identification of the Nodes contained within the element and returning me ID and Coordinates (x-y since I am working in axisymmetric domain).

I need this information because based on the position of the maximum I would use this point to create a partition and re-mesh in the subsequent step, since I am using a *Map solution technique.

I tried with many commands but I cannot access to the nodes coordinates. I tried to use the connectivity but the number of nodes does not match to those that I can probe within the CAE. Furthermore, on documentation I saw many commands to take nodes from sets, and coordinates of nodes using a precise ID... but I do not have this information and it will change during the analysis depending by the location of the maximum.

I hope someone with more experience may help me in this.

Many thanks
