Origins of residual vectors

Howdy,
 
First time posting here, please be nice :)
 
It is my understanding that the calculation of residual vectors is triggered in a variety of ways (loads, inertial, rvdof, etc). Assuming that is true is there a way determine the origin of each residual vector in a particular run?
 
Thanks in advance for any input.

  • Don,
     
    Thanks for the quick reply on this one. Yes that process of elimination approach should be insightful.
     
    Regarding the usefulness of knowing the origin, not sure atm, I am just curious.
     
    Related thought/possibility: I haven't reviewed the underlying math to answer this but is it possible that these residual vectors could be mixed together when they are calc'ed > synthesized > re-orthogonalized. If so then the final residual vector could have multiple origins? Or is it always single origin?
