EXTRACTS THE SUMMARY FROM TH/ABF FILES

Extracts a named channel’s time-history data from a TH or ABF file and returns it as a numeric vector. Use this worker when you need to pull a single channel by its identifier from a time-history result file for downstream curve processing or plotting.

When to use

Classification: process.

Tagged: abf, binout, channel, extraction, th, time_history.

Inputs

Label ID Type Default Required Description
File Name file_name string TH.th   Path or filename of the TH or ABF time-history file to read (e.g. ‘TH.th’); defaults to ‘TH.th’ and can be left at default when the upstream solver step writes to that standard name.
Channel Id channel_id string   String identifier of the channel to extract from the file (e.g. ‘X_VEL’ or a numeric channel index as a string); required in practice — no default is provided, so always supply the target channel name.

Outputs

Label ID Type Description
th_channel_by_id_output_1 th_channel_by_id_output_1 vector Numeric vector containing the extracted channel values (e.g. force, velocity, displacement vs. time) read sequentially from the TH/ABF file for the requested channel ID.
