MPCO recorder error

Post by PabloEspinoza » Tue Dec 15, 2020 6:29 am

Hello,

I'd like to use STKO postprocessor for my model, but I keep getting the following error message: "MPCORecorder error: unknown arg with option none" when I use de mpco recorder command.

My model consists of an all-quad unestructured mesh of quadUP elements and I can get it to run successfully without the mpco recorder. Also I've been able to run a couple of STKO examples with the mpco recorder.

I'm attaching a part of my model if it's of any help

Thank you

It's because in the mpco recorder command, after the backslash, you put some extra space characters. Note that in TCL, when you use the backslash to write a command on multiple lines, you SHOULD NEVER put any extra character after the backslash.

One more note: for element results you need "material.stress" instead of "stress", because you are using a quadUP element that has full integration (4 gauss points). "stress" works with reduced-integration (1 gauss point) elements such as SSPQuadUP

Here is the modified recorder file
