output_control set results

RESULTS is used to create the results file. This all-purpose file can contain all the simulation output from Adams. You can use the results file as an input file to Adams View. The results file may contain any combination of system displacements, velocities, accelerations, forces, variables defined through user-written differential equations, and user-written requests.
The results file can contain any combination of the following information:
■Displacements--Displacements of the LPRF with respect to ground and resolved in the ground reference frame.
■Velocities--Velocities of the LPRF with respect to ground and resolved in the ground reference frame.
■Accelerations--Accelerations of the LPRF with respect to ground and resolved in the ground reference frame.
■Reaction forces--Forces on the I marker required to enforce each constraint, resolved in the ground reference frame.
■Applied forces--Forces on the I marker applied by Adams force elements, resolved in the ground reference frame.
■Differential equations--Values of the variables defined by the user-written differential equations and their first derivatives with respect to time.
■User results--Values computed in the evaluation user-written subroutine REQSUB.

Parameter
Value Type
Description
model_name
Existing model
Specifies the model to be modified. You use this parameter to identify the existing model to be affected with this command.
create_results_file
On/Off
Specifies whether or not Adams is to create a results file which contains all simulation output from Adams. For more information about the contents and format of the results file, see Appendix F in the Adams View Reference file.
formatted
On/Off
Specifies that the results file is to be a formatted file. The default is an unformatted (or binary) file. The formatted file is a sequential ASCII text file, and the unformatted file is a direct access binary file. You can understand a formatted file if you write it to the screen or print it. An unformatted binary file will read into a postprocessing program faster.
applied_forces
On/off
Specifies whether the results file is to include output from applied_forces. ON indicates that the results file will include the desired output. OFF indicates that the results file will not include the applied_forces output.
displacements
On/off
Specifies whether the results file is to include output from part displacements. ON indicates that the results file will include the desired output. OFF indicates that the results file will not include the part displacements output.
reaction_forces
On/off
Specifies whether the results file is to include output of reaction_forces. ON indicates that the results file will include the desired output. OFF indicates that the results file will not include the reaction_forces output.
velocities
On/off
Specifies whether the results file is to include output from part velocities. ON indicates that the results file will include the desired output. OFF indicates that the results file will not include the part velocity output.
data_structures
On/off
Specifies whether the results file is to include output from data_elements. These elements include: curves, splines, variables, arrays, matrices, plants, and strings. ON indicates that the results file will include the desired output. OFF indicates that the results file will not include the data_elements output.
system_elements
On/off
Specifies whether the results file is to include output from system_elements. These elements include LINEAR_STATE_EQUATIONs, GENERAL_STATE_EQUATIONs, and TRANSFER_FUNCTIONs. ON indicates that the results file will include the desired output. OFF indicates that the results file will not include the system_element output.
linear
On/off
Specifies whether the results file is to include output from an Adams linear analysis. ON indicates that the results file will include the desired output. OFF indicates that the results file will not include the linear analysis output.
floating_markers
On/off
Specifies whether the results file is to include output from floating_markers. ON indicates that the results file will include the desired output. OFF indicates that the results file will not include the floating_markers output.
comment
String
Specifies a comment for request, mrequest, madata, and results entities.
accelerations
On/off
Specifies whether the results file is to include part accelerations.

Extended Definition:

1. You may identify a model by typing its name or by picking it from the screen.
If the model is not visible on the screen, you must type the name.
You may also find it convenient to type the name even if the model is displayed.
You must separate multiple model names by commas.
If the model is visible in one of your views, you may identify it by picking on any of the graphics associated with it.
You need not separate multiple model picks by commas.
2. The comment can contain up to 80 characters, and can be comprised of letters of the alphabet (a-z, A-Z), numbers (0-9), and underscores. You may also use spaces and special characters (*&^%$#) if you enclose the comment in quotation marks.
Examples:
comment=the_first_request
comment="Displacement of wheel center 1 wrt ground"
