3D Solid FE for ABAQUS

Regenerate the three-dimensional, eight node finite element from chapter Mixed 3D Solid FE for AceFEM for ABAQUS environment.

Generation of element source code for ABAQUS  environment

The AceGen input presented in previous example can be used again with the "Environment"→"ABAQUS" option to produce ABAQUS's source code file. The current ABAQUS interface does not support internal degrees of freedom. Consequently, the mixed deformation modes are skipped. The generated code is then incorporated into ABAQUS.

Test example: ABAQUS

Here is the generated element compiled and linked into the ABAQUS's. The SMSABAQUSRun function then starts ABAQUS with a ABAQUSExample.inp file as a input file and a tmp.res file as output file. The ABAQUS input data file for the one element test example is available in a $BaseDirectory/Applications/AceGen/Include/ABAQUS/ directory.
