Abaqus Mode Programming

[xfaure1]

Hello,

I have Abaqus on my machine. I want to do a script to open file, move some vertices and export a 3D mesh of the result and save without the GUI. In fact, I want to know if there is a mode programming to Abaqus, and if yes, where I can find a manual to explain this mode.

Thanks for your help!

Hi,

Abaqus Scripting Interface (ASI) is based on Python scripting language. All informations about ASI can find in abaqus documentation (Abaqus Scripting User's Manual, Abaqus Scripting Reference Manual).

Hi,

You should have whole Abaqus documentation with your software installation.
Simulia is providing full Abaqus documentation in HTML and PDF format for all customers.
If you do not have the documentation then google + "abaqus documentation" will help you to get it at least for older abaqus versions.
