Transfering Results from Explicit to Standard for Heat Transfer Analysis

Hello,

I was wondering if anybody could provide me with a tip or a starting point for a problem I have encountered. I've browsed the documentation with no luck so far, maybe I'm using the wrong search terms.

I am modeling high velocity impacts which generate heat using ABAQUS/Explicit. I would like to add a step after the impact step to simulate the conductive transfer of the heat generated upon impact. As far as I understand heat transfer analysis is done in ABAQUS/Standard.

Is there a way to add a standard step after an explicit step, or to transfer my results from the explicit simulation to the input of a standard simulation so that heat flow can be accounted for?

Thanks for reading, any and all answers are greatly appreciated!

Luke
