Ansys mechanical output only for element set defined

  Hi, I want to perform a static analysis with multiple steps followed by a fatigue analysis.
  I want to have a *.rst file, which has only stress details for the element set I create rather than all components. These elements are the hotspot locations.
  This will help to reduce my simulation size in nCode. Now it's solved for full components.
  Is there a solution for this? Or is it possible to select only the element set I define to be considered for fatigue analysis.

  Hi Ashish,
  
  One approach may be to use submodeling. Perform a global analysis with a coarse mesh and then perform submodeling. With submodeling you will be get a single .rst file.

  Thank you Ashish ,
  Is there a way, I can only request output for the element set through named selection.
