    Strange Beam Behavior

    Hi Joseph Thank you for information.If its possible,ask them please,why lineload in local (beam) cs has only 2 components.And second question: why assy.ips.pointOn return coordinates of yellow points on edges in part cs (not assy cs) in contrast with assy.edge.pointOn behaviour.Thank you in...

    Strange Beam Behavior

    Hi Here attached I`m sending you two input files.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=aa02e098-6415-425e-8202-240436cbbc52&file=Input_files.rar

    Why line load in local coordinate system has only two components?

    Ok,now when we understood each other my question is still: where is third component of line load in beam coordinate system?

    Why line load in local coordinate system has only two components?

    In reality I want to put wind and ice loads on my frame.I will use global option of course,because there is no other way.In calculations I need not only behavior of some beam,but behavior of whole system,so I need to put all forces.I hope you understand me,excume for my english

    Why line load in local coordinate system has only two components?

    Like gravity force for example.Any vector in 3d has 3 components.How to put ice load on vertical beam for example?

    Strange Beam Behavior

    Hi I reassign beam section orientation to 0,0,-1 for both models and have got nearly the same results for both models.You have to check tangent directions also.

    Macro to Retrieve Displacement Data from ODB File

    Hi You have to read Abaqus-Scripting-Accessing an Output Database chapter of Help

    Combining multiple XY reports into excel worksheet

    Hi Here attached I`m sending you my script which save history output of displacements to file. Hope this helps. from odbAccess import * odb = openOdb(path='Job-0.odb') steps = odb.steps #Repository flag = -1 Us = [] Uk = ['StepName'] for stepKey in steps.keys(): flag += 1 step = steps[stepKey]...

    Combining multiple XY reports into excel worksheet

    Hello I mean that you can get all data you need from odb and save them in array,after this you can save array to excel file

    Hi please insert picture for second case

    Macro to Retrieve Displacement Data from ODB File

    Hi May be it is better to create set for node and history output for displacement of this node.

    Why line load in local coordinate system has only two components?

    Hi I want to assign line load on beam element in Abaqus. In Abaqus dialog window Line load has three components in global CS but only two in local CS. The qwestion is, where is third component and how to assign it? Thanks in advance

    Solidworks Interface: Reference Geometry

    Hi My answer is no,you can`t.I don`t use geometry interface,instead I import geometry via step file format from SW. I create separate files for shell and wire geometry.I insert ref points where it is necessary after import and use scripting extensively to connect parts.
