15.1. Graph Display Actions

The commands described here create graphs anywhere in the program (including at the BEGIN level):

Graph Display ActionCommand
Display linear material properties (those defined via the MP family of commands) as a function of temperature MPPLOT
Display nonlinear data curves (stress-strain, B-H curve, etc. defined via the TB family of commands) TBPLOT
Display column vectors of array parameters *VPLOT
The following commands create graphs in POST1 only:
Calculate and graph path items vs. path length PLPATH
Calculate and graph the membrane and membrane plus linearized stresses along a path PLSECT
Other graphic display actions:
Graph any predefined variable as a function of TIME (FREQ for harmonic analyses) or some other variable that you define. Available in POST26 only. PLVAR
Reissue the last display action command issued /REPLOT
