Complex variable part:

0 - Amplitude.

1 - Phase angle.

2 - Real part.

3 - Imaginary part.

Notes

Used only with harmonic analyses (ANTYPE,HARMIC).

All results data are stored in the form of real and imaginary components and converted to amplitude and/or phase angle as specified via the PLCPLX command. The conversion is not valid for derived results (such as principal stress/strain, equivalent stress/strain and USUM).
