What are the different methods of post processing in PyMAPDL?
There are three or four methods depending on how you count/group the answers. Generally these are:
1 Creating static images (png, jpeg, etc) of results using the standard, native capability of MAPDL batch.
2 Using the native PyMAPDL post processing method; this is based on Numpy arrays of data (e.g. node IDs and nodal result) and live plotting of contour plots.
3 Use PyMAPDL Reader language library. Similar to number 2 but has its own method names.
4 Gather the necessary data and use a plotting library of your choice; often PyVista or Matplotlib.pyplot depending on whether a contour or XY plot is needed.
