FE-SAFE to ABAQUS

[Mohammed1015]

Hi everyone,
I made a model in Abaqus then export it to do fatigue life test in Fe-Safe simulation, after that for post-processing I export it to Abaqus. My question how to extract that odb. file data to excel in form [nodes(x,y,z), stress, life cycle]. I want these data to use it as iteration for ANN. As the attached file show the history not include the nodes orientation, stresses etc..

You can use Report —> Field Output to save the data to text file. However, this will not save the coordinates. To get them you can use the following approach (assuming that you want to export LOG Life data):
1) Select the "Probe values" tool
2) Set "Probe: Nodes"
3) Switch to "Select a display group"
4) Set "Display group: All"
5) Click "Write to File"

In both cases you will get the .rpt file that can be opened with text editor.

Create an additional field output request in Abaqus with the variable COORD and make sure you request it for location "nodes". This will allow to export the nodal coordinates in postprocessing.
