Abaqus DISP Subroutine
Hi everyone!!
I am a student studying in Hamburg University of Technology. I am currently doing my thesis and want some help in finishing it. I am finding it a bit difficult to do subroutine in Fortran as I am new to it. I have tried learning from Abaqus Documentation but I didn't get answer to my needs.
I already have a text file that contains Nodes, X,Y,Z coordinates and the displacement values to be assigned.
For Example: Nodes X_coord Y_coord Z_coord U
1 0.23 1 .94 2.36+i.45
62 .... ... .... ....
...
538 .... .... .... ....
It a basically a 304 x 5 matrix. I just need to assign the values of the displacements to these nodes using a subroutine.
SUBROUTINE DISP(U,KSTEP,KINC,TIME,NODE,NOEL,JDOF,COORDS)
C
INCLUDE 'ABA_PARAM.INC'
C
DIMENSION U(3),TIME(2),COORDS(3)
C
REAL,DIMENSION(304,5)::A
A = OPEN(UNIT = 1, FILE ="Pressure_SAVAN_100Hz.txt", FORM = "FORMATTED", STATUS = "OLD", ACTION = "READ")
DO I = 1, 304
IF (NODE.EQ.A(I,1)) THEN
U(1) = A(I,5)
ENDIF
ENDDO
RETURN
END
Please do notify me where I have gone wrong! Your help is much appreciated

RE: Abaqus DISP Subroutine
Dear SavanRGowda
You sholud assign the proper value of displacment based on the JDOF parameter. for example if the fifth column of your file is the displacement in the y direction you sholud use :
DO I = 1, 304
IF (NODE.EQ.A(I,1)) THEN
IF (JDOF .EQ. 2) THEN
U(1) = A(I,5)
END IF
ENDIF
ENDDO
Hi again!!
Hi again!!
I have tried to code the fortran file and I don't what is wrong with the file exactly. Below is my code
SUBROUTINE DISP(U,KSTEP,KINC,TIME,NODE,NOEL,JDOF,COORDS)
INCLUDE 'ABA_PARAM.INC'
INTEGER,PARAMETER::iwp=SELECTED_REAL_KIND(15)
REAL(iwp),INTENT(OUT)::U(1)
!DIMENSION U(3),TIME(2),COORDS(3)
REAL,DIMENSION(1:304,1:3)::A ! Matrix with dimension 304 x 3
REAL :: x, y, z
!COMPLEX,DIMENSION(1:304)::E
INTEGER :: i,j,k
OPEN(UNIT = 1, FILE = "Pressure_SAVAN_100Hz.txt",
1 FORM = "FORMATTED", STATUS = "OLD", ACTION = "READ") !text file which is a 304 x 3 Matrix
DO i=1,UBOUND(A,1)
READ(UNIT=7, FMT=*)x,y,z
DO k=1, UBOUND(A,1)
A(i,1) = x
A(i,2) = y!real part of the value
A(i,3) = z!complex part of the value
!E(i) = CMPLX(y,z)
ENDDO
ENDDO
DO j = 1, UBOUND(A,1)
IF (NODE.EQ.A(j,1)) THEN
IF(JDOF.EQ.1) THEN
U(j) = A(j,2)
ENDIF
ENDIF
ENDDO
END
My text file looks something like this:
1,0.020141,3.1217
2,0.096111,3.1203
3,0.23753,3.1128
4,0.45527,3.0884
5,0.75772,3.0285
6,1.1475,2.9033
7,1.6152,2.6715
The program is not going further with the iteration! I am stuck with this from past 2 weeks!. Any help is appreciated!!
Thanks in advance
Kind Regards
Savan
Suggestions
If you can provide a sample inp file of your problem along with the subroutine and text file, it would be easy to diagonise.
If it is confidential, what I can suggest is use WRITE command in your subroutine and check each and every line of your code gives the output AS YOU EXPECT. Most of the time here it goes wrong. You imagine to be the output as this but it wont.
Dont use a large set of text data (304 x 3 Matrix), reduce to say about 3 X3 matrix data and see if evverything goes smoothly as expected.
I am expecting some kind of syntax or declaration errors to the type of issue you had mentioned. Please use the write command and diagonise systematically as suggested.
Hi tarkes,
Hi tarkes,
