Extracting Eigenvalues and Eigenvector using Eigenfrequency study

Hello,
I was successfully able to extract the first N (~ 50) eigenvalues, using Eigenfrequency study and Solid Mechanics physics setup. I use the export option to write out the frequencies and eigenvalues (lambda).
However, now I also need the corresponding Eigenvectors. I am not able to do the same, since the exporter does not show Eigenvectors in the export list.
Pls let me know how I can export the first N eigenvalue and eigenvectors pairs. Is there is a simpler way to do this using Matlab LiveLink?
Thanks,
Gaurav

Could someone pls answer. I have seen posts (e.g. www.comsol.com/community/forums/general/thread/31634/) where people talk about having Eigenvectors data access, but am not sure how they actually extract it from COMSOL.
Thanks,
Gaurav

Hi,
You should be able to select displacements in the Expressions section of Results->Export->Data. If you do not find them in the list, you can always write u, v and w explicitly in the list of expressions.
Which physics interface (element type) are you using? If it is 'subdimensional' (like a shell which lives on surfaces in 3D) you may have to do a manual selection for 'Geometry Level' in Results->Export->Data.

Henrik
