Greetings,
I am modeling a hinge design with one face having a fixed wall boundary condition and the other having an applied force for a specified duration of time. I have been trying to figure out how to track nodal rotation of a specific node set using a history output command for my model (Fig. 1) so that I can determine what angle the hinge bends to at the end of the loading phase. I am unable however to see any data for nodal rotation in the results of my simulation. I have double checked that I created a history output for that node set (Fig.2) , and that I have selected UR (Rotations) in the output variables list. When I run the simulation I only get Spatial displacement (U1,U2,U3) and no URs (Fig. 3).
I have done a lot of searching on help blogs already and have been unable to find any answer as to why this may be happening. I appreciate any assistance that you may have and thank you in advance for your help.
Thanks,
Aaron
