The next few pages describe the format of the Mechanical APDL results file. (In the following tables, records with a record ID containing an asterisk (*) are those you can read and store into the Mechanical APDL database via the LDREAD command.)
Note: The pointers in the solution data headers are relative, not absolute pointers. For example, the 12th item in the solution data header will be relative to a position in the Data Set Index (ptrESL = DSI(i) + ptrESL).
This section explains the contents of the results file; that is, those files with the following extensions:
The *XPL command enables you to explore the contents of certain Mechanical APDL binary files, including the results file. For more information, see Appendix B: Using APDL to List File Structure and Content in the Ansys Parametric Design Language Guide.
A load case contains the results for an instance in an analysis. A load case is defined by a load step number and a substep number. A load case is also categorized by a cumulative iteration number and time (or frequency) values. A load case is identified by all three methods in the results file.
The results file does not have to contain all the load cases of an analysis.
A data set is used in this chapter to designate a load case.
For a complex analysis, there will be two data sets for each load case. The first data set contain the real solution and the second contains the imaginary solution.
See The Standard Header for Mechanical APDL Binary Files for a description of this set. File number (Item 1) is 12.

c
c Definition of common terms referred here
c and in subsequent EEL, EPL, ECR, ETH,
c ENL, EUL EPT, and EDI sections:
c
c nodstr - number of nodes per element
c having stresses, strains, etc.
c For higher-order elements, nodstr
c equals to the number of corner
c nodes (e.g., for 20-noded SOLID186,
c nodstr = 8). NOTE- the /config NST1
c option may suppress all but one node
c output of nodal ENS EEL EPL ECR ETH
c and ENL for any given element.
c
c NOTE - for layered Prism-shaped SOLID186,
c nodstr = 6
c
c nodfor - number of nodes per element
c having nodal forces, etc.
c ncomp - number of solution items per node
c ncomp = 6 for ENS record
c 7 for EEL record
c 7 for EPL record
c 7 for ECR record
c 8 for ETH record
c 10 for ENL record
c 7 for EDI record
c NL - number of layers in layered
c elements
c
c Note: For result sets with NoPrin=0,
c the ENS record will have ncomp=11 and include
c the principal stresses S1,S2,S3,SI,SIGE.
c
c * For solid elements or layered solid elements
c with KEYOPT(8)=0, the record contains
c stresses at each corner node, and
c the number of items in this record is
c nodstr*ncomp.
c * For shell elements or layered shell elements
c with KEYOPT(8)=0, the record contains
c stresses at each corner node (first
c at the bottom shell surface, then the top
c surface), and the number of items in this
c record is 2*nodstr*ncomp.
c * For layered elements SHELL91, SHELL99,
c SOLID46, and SOLID191 with KEYOPT(8) = 0,
c if failure criteria were used, the record
c contains additional stresses at each corner
c nodes (first the bottom surface, then the
c top surface) of the layer with the largest
c failure criteria. Therefore, the total number
c of items is 4*nodstr*ncomp for SHELL91 and
c SHELL99, and 2*nodstr*ncomp for SOLID46 and
c SOLID191.
c * For layered elements (with KEYOPT(8)=1),
c stresses for each layer are at each
c corner node (first at the bottom surface, then
c at the top surface), and the number of
c items in this record is NL*2*nodstr*ncomp for
c layered shells and NL*nodstr*ncomp for
c layered solid elements.
c * For layered shell elements with KEYOPT(8)=2,
c the record contains stresses for each layer
c at each corner node (first at the bottom
c surface, then the top, and finally the middle
c surface). Therefore, the number of items
c in this record is NL*3*nodstr*ncomp.
c * For layered membrane elements (SHELL181,
c SHELL281, SHELL208, and SHELL209 with
c KEYOPT(1)=1 and KEYOPT(8)=1), the record
c contains stresses for each layer at each
c corner node, and the number of items in

c element in the ANSYS Elements Reference.

c Gradients can be nodal values extrapolated
c from the integration points or values at the
c integration points moved to the nodes. See
c item rxtrap in the solution header for the

c is nodstr*3*N, where N can be 1, 2, 3, or 4
c (depending on the coupled-field
