Hi at all I have a problem in runn 1

Hi at all
I have a problem in running my abaqus script. Although It worked well when I was designing it in abaqus visual environment but now, when trying to run the generated script, I face an Error called " NameError: name 'Q_VECTORS' is not defined ". It's about a seam to model a crack...
What I am supposed to do in order to solve it ? I have designed it for many times, but still I've got the same problem.
Here is the picture of error.

You should also define the q vectors like this:

extensionDirectionMethod=Q_VECTORS, qVectors=...

Check the "Abaqus Scripting Reference Guide" for more details.

Put this line at the top of your script:

[pre]from abaqusConstants import Q_VECTORS[/pre]

or, to get all enumerated types you could use:

[pre]from abaqusConstants import *[/pre]
