      Hi,

      i am currently trying to select elements that are within a ellipsoid shape.

      In the process i would like to use the ATAN2 function within Ansys APDL.

      I havent seen it from the help website.

      Is it implemented?

      Is there a workaround to gather same results other than having multiple conditions for each quadrant?

       

      BR

      Hi Johannes

      Check this table - is that the function you are looking for?
