abaqus instruction check

(OP)
Hi everyone,
i need help.
i use 6.3.1 on win2000, and i want to check if after running job, loads and constraints i gave to the model are correct (i usually write an .inp file).
how to do it in viewer?
does anyone know if "abaqus post" works with abaqus 6.3.1?
i tried also to check the file importing .inp and .fil with femap 8.2 but may be it has problems with the following line command
*NCOPY,CHANGE NUMBER=286,OLD SET=SYMM1,SHIFT,MULTIPLE=10,NEW SET=TOTAL
0.,0.,0.
0.,0.,0.,0.,0.,1.,18.

bye and thanks in advance.

RE: abaqus instruction check

You can do it via the command line using:

abaqus job=<jobname> datacheck interactive

if no problems are found, then you can continue on with the analysis using:

abaqus job=<jobname> continue interactive

The above assumes your are running on a UNIX (e.g. HP-UX) platform, but running through a DOS prompt the syntax should be very similar.

The best of luck,

RE: abaqus instruction check

In viewer you can add the boundary conditions to the view by using ODB options, I think. This isn't much good for checking your load input though. The best way is to check the surfaces or nodal sets you've defined to make sure they are where they are supposed to be. For checking the value of the loads input there's no easy way other than to run the job and include *Node print, totals=yes followed by RF. At least then you can check that the total of the reaction forces equals the total sum of the pressures/forces you've input. It's something hks should sort out.
