Thank you so much!

Thank you! And how can I define elset? I couldn't find their element numbers. Is there a place to look them up?

Hello, How could I extract the force and displacement results (S11, E11) of all the spring elements in a model? Is it possible to identify the springs through python scripting? Thank you!

Thank you both for the help!

Hello, I would like to assign a boundary condition where the shell elements do not bend even though there is a bending force applied. For example, a straight panel remains straight under an arbitrary load, but it may stretch or rotate. Is it possible to do so? Thank you!

I've figured it out. Thank you so much for the help! Here are my codes: from abaqus import * import testUtils testUtils.setBackwardCompatibility() from abaqusConstants import * from caeModules import * import sketch import part from regionToolset import* import load from shutil import * from...

Thank you, it worked! However, the part I created only have one element. How can I break it down into a finer mesh?

Hello! I'd like to create a triangular shell part in ABAQUS using its nodal cooordinates in 3D. For example, how can I make a trianglular shell with vertices (0,0,0), (1,2,3), (3,2,1)? Would it be possible to create parts like this with python scripts since I have too many of them? Thank you!
