Export Options - Abaqus

You can export a simulation study to an Abaqus file (*.inp).

  1. Right-click the top icon of a Simulation study tree, and click Export
  2. For Save as type, select ABAQUS Files (*.inp).
These simulation features can be exported to an Abaqus file format:
  • Studies: Static, Dynamic, Nonlinear, Buckling, and Thermal
  • Sold, Shell, Beam, and 2D Simplification elements
  • External Loads: force, torque, pressure, gravity, centrifugal, and temperature
  • Fixtures: All excluding symmetry boundary conditions
  • Spring connector
  • Linear elastic material properties. Nonlinear material properties for plastic, hyperelastic, and viscoelastic material models are partially translated.

Export Options

Node Offset Sets the node offset. The lowest node label in the generated file will be the specified node offset + 1.
Element Offset Sets the element offset. The lowest element label in the generated file will be the specified element offset + 1.
Set the simulation data in the SI unit system in order to export to Abaqus.
