ABAQUS 2022 AM Modeler Plugin

[dhj21]

Hello,

I am trying to use the ABAQUS AM Modeler Plugin in the CAE to follow the example here :

https://help.3ds.com/2022/english/d...scope=all&id=e15de06a914146c1b0aa312ad8e26268

I think I am pretty close to being able to follow it. I have created the event series, moving heat source, and cooling portions. However, when I try to complete the material input section, for element activation, the event series widget is blank. If I fill out the rest of the information for the advanced and bead tabs and click ok, I receive this message "Data are not complete or invalid for following widgets, Event series."

I have written an input file and the event series are there, and the moving heat source section of the plugin can read the event series.

I just need help determining why the material input section isn't reading the event series.

Thanks.

I realized my mistake. I needed to add an event series for the static (structural) step in addition to the heat transfer model.
