In Abaqus, combine two separate .odb (not from restart)

(OP)
I want to simulate ARB(accumulative roll bonding),ARB is illustrated as: http://www.hindawi.com/archive/2008/328754/fig1/  .
There are many cycles in my simulation. I make two models separately in the (n-1)cycle, and combine the two .odb got from (n-1)cycle into an .odb. Then mapping solution used to map the output got from (n-1) cycle to the input of (n)cycle. Repeat this procedure.
The specimen under deformation is rectangle,like"-", combination requirement is that the bottom surface of the top specimen is coincide with the top surface of the bottom specimen, like"=".
I know how to use mapping solution, but i do not know how to combine two .odb into one.
