Can any one tell me, in the Caesar input echo, value for the pressure is not appearing if the value given in the caesar input exceeds five digit( for ex 10000 KPA).if it is less than 10000(i.e 9999KPA), it is coming in the input echo

What to do???

You need to edit the format specifier in the ".INP" file. Chances are you're looking at the element report? This is controlled by "element.inp", which can be found in \caesar\system.

Using NotePad (or some other "Text" editor, open this file. Find this section:

/AUX4 18

:'   P4=':4:4 PRESURE4+ :'   P5=':4:4 PRESURE5+ :'   P6=':4:4 PRESURE6+

:'   PHyd=':4:4 PRESUREH+ :'   Mat= ' MAT1+ :'   E=':13:0 EMOD+          

In the above section from the INP file, notice the ":4:4" in front of each "pressure identifier". This is what you need to change. I'd suggest changing all these "4" values to "6".

• Be careful, don't change anything else.
• Make sure you use a "Text Editor". If you do this with MS Word you will corrupt the file (actually you'll change it from a text file to a Word Document.
• If you foul it up, you can recover, there is a copy of "element.inp" in "element0.inp".
• The other "elementx.inp" files are other variations. You use these by copying the desired "elementx.inp" file into "element.inp". This is discussed in the User's Guide if you're interested.

Thank you mr richard...
I got it...
