Input
(Refer to "Axisymmetric Stresses")
Upon executing the Axisymmetric > Force & Stress Table function, Records Activation Dialog prompts. Click the OK Button after selecting the output entities such as nodes or elements, loading conditions, construction stages, etc.
Note
Refer to Results Table of "Usage of Table Tool" for the usage of Records Activation Dialog.
