Reading Abaqus odb into Ansys

[GMarsh]

Hi,

I have a Abaqus (6.9-1) odb file with modal analysis results. Now due to requirement of some downstream applications, I need to get these results from Ansys. I have two questions:

1. Reading Abaqus odb into Ansys - I have Ansys 12 in office. Is there any way where I can import my Abaqus results into Ansys ?

2. Reading Abaqus FE model into Ansys - Is there any option of reading meshed model into Ansys directly? In Import option I couldn't find such facility.

Thank you in advance.

Regards
Geoff
