IDENTIFICATION OF CELLS, FACES, EDGES AND VERTEX

[3JC]

Dear collages,

What is the identification that Abaqus done when you create a new element, as a part, for example? I need it to define Datum planes, for example, to cut parts. And if the Abaqus doesn't make this, how can I get them? Thank you.

Regards,

jJ

Dear collages,

I have found two procedures to select entities in Abaqus:

1) getSequenceFromMask

2) findAt

For the first one, I need the codification of entities (edges, faces, etc.). In my model, ¿how can I get it in Abaqus CAE? With Query I can get information about points only.

The second one is similar to clicking with the mouse, but I would prefer the first one. Could anybody help to me? Thank you very much.


Regards,
