Forces of nodes

The following table summarizes whether various ASCII output files contain nodal forces due to various loading or boundary conditions.

	NODFOR	BNDOUT	SPCFORC
*BOUNDARY_SPC	x		x
*NODE	x
*BOUNDARY_PRESCRIBED_MOTION	x	x
*LOAD_NODE	x	x
*LOAD_SEGMENT	x	x
*CONTACT	x

NCFORC and RCFORC contain nodal and resultant contact forces, respectively. There are only included in the NCFORC, when the print flag (SPR, MPR) in *CONTACT (Card 2) is set.
