Hello everybody,

I am currently working on Abaqus, by .inp files. My modelization is made by a great number of elements. The study is about indentation process by a conical indenter. I work in an axisymetric problem.

My problem is the following: the .stt result file grows until about a 30 Go size...

However, I reduced the ouput frequency. That is to say that I put the command lines :

*Output, field, variable=PRESELECT, frequency=250
*OUTPUT,HISTORY, FREQUENCY=250

(I have about 10,000 increments, and I work with fixed time increments)

first, the frequency number was set to 10, so I increased it to 250. this reduced the .odb file size considerably. But not the .stt... which is my problem...

Does anyone know how to reduce it's size?


Thanks a lot.

Best regards.

Fanch
