MNS747,
Thank you for your comment. I tried your method and it worked. However when I did the same thing for an RVE with 125,000 elements, an error occured and abaqus cae closed itself after I clicked "Ok" on the error window.
As for the python code I made some progress. This is my program...
Thank you. I am familiar with python and I wrote a small code to communicated with an ODB file. I think I am very close but there is something missing in my program. The code is:
from abaqus import *
from abaqusConstants import *
from odbAccess import *
from visualization import *
import...
Tata,
Thank you for your response. I used *Node Print; I added the command "*NODE PRINT, NSET=_PICKEDSET3" to the input file under *step (I have attached the input file). But I got the folowing message:
WARNING: The following keywords/parameters are not yet supported by the input file reader...
Hello,
The format of abaqus output file (ODB) is not text. Is there a way to make Abaqus/CAE generate text output file with the values of stress, temperature, etc. for all elements or nodes in each time step?
Thank you,
Ardavan.
Tata,
Thank you for your response. Actually, I had done a similar thing before: Generated small cubes, meshed them separately and gave initial temp to each. Then I used the interaction module to connect them. There I had to creat an interaction property. The type of interaction was "contact"...
Hello,
I generated a cubic part and partitioned it to 8 smaller cubes. Using predefined field, I assigned a different temperature to each cube. The objective is to observe how heat is transferred from warmer areas to colder areas. I meshed the part to eight cubic elements, which coincided with...
