13.13 Improvements to filtered field output

Products: Abaqus/Explicit  Abaqus/CAE  

Benefits: Time output of filtered target values for filtered field output is now written to the output database. You can filter and monitor an invariant of a vector or tensor quantity.

Description: When using filtering to find the maximum, minimum, absolute maximum, or limiting value of a variable, the time at which the value is reached is now also output to the output database. By default, when using field filtering for vector or tensor output, each component is filtered separately. You now have the choice to filter and monitor an invariant quantity.
