Problem running example problems

Problem running example problems

Problem running example problems

(OP)
Hi, I have been using the abaqus example problems manual because some of the examples are actually quite similar to what I would like to do.
The problem is that for some reason when I load the input files into cae and then create a job and let it run, the solver always crashes with an error.
But when I create a job straight from the input file and not from the cae environment there are no problems.
It is really weird.
Does anyone know what the problem may be?

Thanks

RE: Problem running example problems

What error(s) are you getting?

RE: Problem running example problems

(OP)
Well, it depends on the example problem. Things like negative eigenvalues and too large iteration steps usually.
It's also strange that when I look at the BC's and steps they don't seem to complete, for some reason when I load the input file into cae its missing things, but when u load it into the solver directly it works. I really don't understand why.  

RE: Problem running example problems

Yes, I have also had problem running input files from cae and had to run them straight from prompt commands. I could be that the exmaple you are looking at requries one input file to be process after another. When I run input files in cae, sometimes I get errors with some input commands not being understood by abaqus. It is strange and SIMULIA seem aware of it and may sort the problems in the future.
