ABAQUS .inp file

Submitted by ritwickshomen on

Hi there,

 

I am a masters student and new to ABAQUS CAE. I am using version 6.7-1. I have a problem using the .inp file.

After writing the .inp file for a perticular problem how can i run the file. The ABAQUS CAE only recognizes .cae and.obd files. can someone help me out?

 

Thanks in advance.

Not sure if you already solved your problem. I am an Ansys user and new to Abaqus. I tried to import an input file to CAE to create a model and this method below seem to work. 

Right click "Models" - the parent of everything in model tree, then select import in the sub-menu. It should open a window, choose the filetype as "Abaqus input file, .inp". The window should now display all the input files in the working directory. Select your input file, this should import the model. 

You may then run by creating a new job and submitting the job. Hope this is helpful.

It seems that your computer's environment isn't set properly. To get that command to work, add the path to the Commands directory to your Path environment variable. The default path is "C:\SIMULIA\Abaqus\Commands", but it may be different on your system. Once you've added that to your Path variable (separating it from the other entries with a semicolon), you should be able to use the command properly.

you can run your input file through your CAE environment:

-first: Make sure that your INPUT file is in the same folder as the ABAQUS itself

-then: go go the JOB module in your ABAQUS CAE. click on CREATE JOB, name the job, and then under SOURCE pull down menu select input file. Browes to you input file. After you found it, click CONTINUE... OK to the edit job dialog box. now in the JOB MENAGER window, select your newly created job. Click submit and cross your fingers. good luck :)

Dear Mohammad,

Go to section 29.1.1. of the Abaqus 6.10 Analysis User's Manual, "Defining Nonlinear Spring behaviour".

You cannot define nonlinear spring behavior in Abaqus/CAE when you
define springs as engineering features. In your case, you can only define connectors that
have spring-like elastic behavior (see section 28.2.2.).
What is exactly the problem you want to simulate? Are you working with Abaqus/CAE?
