Help with abaqus restart analysis from a static analysis to a dynamics explicit

Submitted by bzhang12 on

Good morning,

Hope everyone is doing fine this weekend. I have a problem with abaqus stated in the title of this post and hope to find some wisdoms here.

Bascially, I would like to perform a dynamic explicit analysis from a static analysis and I set up the process in CAE as follows:

Step -> restart  requests -> frequency 1.
