Parameters
----------
allke
A Boolean specifying a request for a column containing the total kinetic energy. This
argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Explicit analysis. The default value is ON.
criticalElement
A Boolean specifying a request for a column containing the element that has the smallest
stable time increment and a column listing the value. This argument is valid only for an
Abaqus/Explicit analysis. The default value is ON.
dmass
A Boolean specifying a request for a column containing the percent change in total mass
of the model as a result of mass scaling. This argument is valid only for an
Abaqus/Explicit analysis. The default value is OFF unless mass scaling is present in the
model.
etotal
A Boolean specifying a request for a column containing the energy balance of the model.
This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Explicit analysis. The default value is OFF.
contact
A Boolean specifying a request for detailed output of points that are contacting or
separating in interface and gap problems. This argument is valid only for an
Abaqus/Standard analysis. The default value is ON.
modelChange
A Boolean specifying a request for detailed output of which elements are being removed
or reactivated in the step. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Standard analysis.
The default value is OFF.
plasticity
A Boolean specifying a request for detailed output of element and integration point
numbers for which the plasticity algorithms have failed to converge in the material
routines. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Standard analysis. The default value
is OFF.
residual
A Boolean specifying a request for output of equilibrium residuals during the
equilibrium iterations. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Standard analysis. The
default value is ON.
frequency
An Int specifying the frequency of output, in increments. The default value is 1.
solve
A Boolean specifying a request for information regarding the actual number of equations
and the wavefront in each iteration. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Standard
analysis. The default value is ON.
mass
A Boolean specifying a request for a column containing the total mass of the model as a
result of mass scaling. This argument is valid only for an Abaqus/Explicit analysis. The
default value is OFF.

Parameters
----------
numberIntervals
An Int specifying the number of intervals during the step at which restart information
will be written. The default value is 0. The default value is 1.
timeMarks
A Boolean specifying whether to use exact time marks for writing during an analysis. The
default value is OFF. The default value is OFF.
overlay
A Boolean specifying that only one increment per step should be retained on the restart
file, thus minimizing the size of the restart file. The default value is OFF. The
default value is ON.
frequency
An Int specifying the increments at which restart information will be written. The
default value is 0. The default value is 0.This argument applies only to Abaqus/Standard
