  As mentioned previously in /forum/discussion/comment/94222#Comment_94222.
  “nlplwk” represents the result of plastic work divided by volume. But when I export the result file, see fig. 1.

  Hi - the nodal value will take into account the element volume apportioned to the node for all elements the node is attached to. If you prefer to work with element data then change the 'Display Option' to Element Mean. This will give you a single value per element. nTraditionally when doing the Darveaux fatigue calculation we would have used a post-processing commands object and used a ETABLE [element table] to gather send,plastic.nMike n
