Simulating Abaqus Mesh Input Files

The oSP3D Abaqus simulate interface cannot write a valid Abaqus input file from start to finish. It can only modify valid Abaqus input files that:

Typically, the simulate feature expects to modify one of the oSP3D project-related valid mesh input files.

The Abaqus export interface is capable of modifying only the following fields of the *NODE keyword:

  • x coordinate in the basic coordinate system

  • y coordinate in the basic coordinate system

  • z coordinate in the basic coordinate system
