Hello All,
I want to select edges from the geometry based on edge length(lets say 1") and mention the divisions for meshing.Is there any method or script to get it?
Please share your ideas. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

There’s no such built-in option so scripting is the only way to do this. Check the Abaqus Scripting Reference Guide - it explains all the necessary Python commands. The "Edge object" chapter and its first paragraph (about getSize method) will be particularly useful.
 
Thanks a lot FEA way.I'll check it.
