     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

@@ -161,9 +50,9 @@ class contact_penetration(Operator):
     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

     Parameters
@@ -153,9 +42,9 @@ class element_orientations(Operator):
     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

-        time/freq values (use doubles or field), time/freq set ids (use ints or scoping) or time/freq step ids (use scoping with TimeFreq_steps location) required in output. To specify time/freq values at specific load steps, put a Field (and not a list) in input with a scoping located on "TimeFreq_steps". Linear time freq intrapolation is performed if the values are not in the result files and the data at the max time or freq is taken when time/freqs are higher than available time/freqs in result files. To get all data for all time/freq sets, connect an int with value -1.
-    mesh_scoping: ScopingsContainer or Scoping, optional
-        nodes or elements scoping required in output. The output fields will be scoped on these node or element IDs. To figure out the ordering of the fields data, look at their scoping IDs as they might not be ordered as the input scoping was. The scoping's location indicates whether nodes or elements are asked for. Using scopings container allows you to split the result fields container into domains

     Parameters
@@ -153,9 +42,9 @@ class gasket_deformation(Operator):
     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

@@ -153,9 +42,9 @@ class gasket_stress(Operator):
     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

@@ -161,9 +50,9 @@ class heat_flux(Operator):
     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

@@ -153,9 +42,9 @@ class magnetic_field(Operator):
     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

@@ -153,9 +43,9 @@ class plastic_strain(Operator):
     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

@@ -153,9 +43,9 @@ class structural_temperature(Operator):
     read_beams: bool, optional
         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.

         elemental nodal beam results are read if this pin is set to true (default is false)
     split_shells: bool, optional
-        If true, this pin forces the results to be split by element shape, indicated by the presence of the 'elshape' label in the output. If false, the results for all elements shapes are combined. Default value is false if averaging is not required and true if averaging is required.
+        This pin forces elemental nodal shell and solid results to be split if this pin is set to true. If set to false (default), a specific shell layer is still needed to merge the fields. Merge is possible only if a shell layer is provided.
     shell_layer: int, optional
-        If connected, this pin allows you to extract the result only on the selected shell layer(s). The available values are: 0: Top, 1: Bottom, 2: TopBottom, 3: Mid, 4: TopBottomMid.
+        If the requested_location pin is not connected, and if split_shells pin is set to true, we choose one of the shell layer for shell element. If split_shells pin is set to false (default value) and a specific shell layer is provided, results will be merged on this specific shell layer.
