Automated data collection

Hi,

I am currently modelling several different hyoid bones and am trying to collect data on them.

I would like a range of data points of the von mises and different cauchy stresses (about 30 points each from different areas of the model) and am currently manually selecting a point and writing down the value. I was wondering if there was any way to automate this, either by being able to select a section of the model and there is a setting that provides data on each mesh point in that area, or anything else.

Thanks,
Nadia

Hello!

From your description it sounds like you’re interested in creating probe points. This can be done under result control > point data.

Alternatively, you can probably do that using ParaView + some Python scripting, but the point data workflow could be faster.

Hi,

Thanks for this! This method is already faster, but do you know if there’s a way to download all of the point data cvs files at the same time rather than going though individually? Or at least a way to save/open them all in one csv file?

Thank you!
