      <p><div>Dear Dr. Emin,</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you for the feedback. <br></div><div><br></div><div>I need to get the stress distribution vectors using matlab since view cut option in abaqus gives the stress tensor component vectors densely clustered when there are more integration points inside an element. What I am looking for is a python function in Abaqus which selects all the elements in a plane normal to a particular global axis and by inputting the distance of the plane from the global coordinate system while taking the odb file. From the selected elements, I will have the stress component values in .out format which were used in matlab for post processing.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks and regards,</div><div>Anuraj<br></div><div><br> </div></p>
