using umat

[navidd2]

Hi guys
I am starting to use umat and i wondered why I can’t get it work.
Here is how I tried:
Opened the Abaqus command page and went to the folder that the .for and the .inp file located then wrote "Abaqus job=input file name user=FORTRAN file name"
I have Abaqus 6.7-1 and Compac visual FORTRAN installed.
The error is ‘ Abaqus is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file’
Could you tell me what is wrong.
Thanks

Hi!

For Abaqus 6.7 you must have Intel visual fortran 9.1 or 10.1 istalled.

in this thread people say it should work.

is that because my abaqus is 6.7?

To me this sounds like DOS doesn't have a link for the word "Abaqus" to the program.

Look at section 2.4.4 Using Abaqus commands in the 6.7 help docs. I'm afraid I can't help you with creating this link but I hope the help file works.

As Dan stated "Abaqus" has not been recognised. Assuming that you have Abaqus installed under C:\ABAQUS then your environmental variable called PATH should include "C:\ABAQUS\Commands", where the batch files to run Abaqus are to be found. The PATH should have been modified during installation.
