This Chapter presents very small examples of data files performing simple operations with the FE model and Results. This helps familiarize the reader to the use of FeResPost, and possibly to ruby also.
The examples are divided into four categories:
Section IV.2.1 presents the “Util” Module that is used in several of the examples.
Section IV.2.2 shows how the model is read from a Bulk Data File and how Groups can be manipulated. No Results are considered in those examples.
Section IV.2.3 shows how some iterators are used.
Section IV.2.4 is more specifically devoted to the manipulation of Results.
Section IV.2.5 presents two useful tools that can be used to generate loads for subsequent Nastran calculations.
