I am having trouble using "Table" to transfer data between PDE problems. Here is the line of script that produces the output. elevation(ex) on 'end' as "x strain at right end" export file = 'ex.tbl' This generates the file ex.tbl as desired. The problem is with the range of the coordinate. The feature named 'end' looks like this, start 'end' (L-.01, W/2) line to (L, -W/2) In the attached example L=6 and W=1 The coordinate labled 'X' in the file has a range of 0 to 0.9984874206. I can't understand how 'X' is being calculated. It doesn't seem to correspond to the disatance along 'end' or to the x or y coordinate. I would like for 'X'in the file to correspond to the y coordinate in the problem.

I've continued to investigate this. It looks like the "X" coordinate in the "table" file is distance along the "feature". But the last data point is being left off. Can this be fixed? | |||

For reasons I don't yet understand, the end point of the trace is being dropped during the refinement process. I will track this down and fix it. In the meantime, you can use ELEVATION(ex) FROM (L,-W/2) TO (L-0.01, W/2) This will create a table with the Y posiiton as table coordinate (labeled "X" in the table file). You can redefine the table coordinate in an importing script by using the TABLE('file',coordinate) format (see Table Input in the Help Index). |
