Thanks a lot Mustaine3, that got me to the solution [thumbsup2]

Hi I have been a while searching for that but didnt get to any conclusion, i just wanna know how to get the active model name. something like vps = session.viewports.values()[0] x = vps.displayedObject.name <<<< Model name instead of the object! print x Many thanks! n3l3[bigsmile]

Hi all, trying to define some shell elements with to inp files: model: [...] 10193, 10194, 10195, 10196, 10197, 10198, 10199, 10200 *Surface, type=ELEMENT, name="Contacto Exterior" "_Contacto Exterior_SPOS", SPOS *INCLUDE, INPUT=secciones.inp *End Part and the include file, secciones.inp...

Hi all, I have an abaqus standard static, shell geometrically non linear model ( a foundation + ballast). the issue I am confronting is that abaqus does the necessary iterations and it almost reaches the 1.0 time step, so in the last increments I can see that the solution is almost the same...

Hi, Gravitational force? I really dont know about impact modelling. good luck n3l3

Hi, I am trying to see the envelope of a field output. For that purpose I am trying to "create a field output" (I know how to do it for example for sum , divide... but i dont know how to create an envelope of the selected frames, since I get no function max or min in the "create field output"...

Ok, i got the answer, i have to get into the STH variable which is the thickness. Once that I run the job I get the variable so I can check the thickness. thanks all

Thanks bkal, the problem is that when doing that no thickness apears for the elements with the analytical thickness

Well, when running th ejob, ii can check with the query tool the thickness of the element, and I can see i have a thickness of one in every element. (which is wrong in every way)

Hi all I am trying to model a shell with variable thicknes by means of an analytical field. First of all i dont know if I am doing it properly, (I created a variable analytical field and I assigned it to the thickness of a section) When I try to plot the thickness of the shell I can see no...

Hi, here the solution to my last question, i just had to add previously: from abaqus import * from abaqusConstants import * from caeModules import * from driverUtils import executeOnCaeStartup thanks all

Well, I must say that what I am trying to do is to see "Envelope" categorie in section point results. I tried to insert the following line in my ".py" init file ( a script I run at the start of CAE), but it does not work since there is no odb loaded (I guess). session.viewports['Viewport...

Hi all Thanks for the idea akabarten, i am going to try it. IceBreakerSours can you assign a macro to a keyboard shortcut? thanks!

Hi, I am not an expert at all, but check out the element type you are using. By changing it you can avoid hourglassing. good luck

Hi All, Does anybody know how to run a script from CAE just pressign an assigned shortcut? thx a lot!!
