Hi Mike, so I was going through the mapdl help would the below be the correct way to get nodal acceleration from transient ansys:

/POST26
NSOL,2,1595,ACC,X
STORE,MERGE
*GET,size,VARI,,NSETS
*dim,ACC_X,array,size
VGET,ACC_X(1),2
*CFOPEN,acc.txt
*VWRITE,ACC_X(1)
(F10.5,F12.2)
*CFCLOSE

Also, how would I get the contact force in an impact simulation in this case?
