    ABAQUS read spring force and relative displacement with python scripting

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

    ABAQUS read spring force and relative displacement with python scripting

    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!

    ABAQUS - Define boundary condition in shell element local coordinate system

    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!

    Creating a shell part using nodal coordinates in ABAQUS

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

    Creating a shell part using nodal coordinates in ABAQUS

    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!
