Hi,


I want to know how to use spread sheet in abaqus or is there any relation between them.

Thank you in advance.

If you've bought Abaqus expecting to see a spreadsheet then you're going to be disappointed.

Yes I know, In fact I want to transfer .inp file from Abaqus to Isymost (structure analysis) in addition I want to respect ASME rules.


Thank you in advance

Abaqus can calculate the stresses for you though you'd have to assess them by ASME rules. You could run the .inp in Calculix if it was in a version 5.8 format, I think. Though again you'd need to assess the stresses yourself.
If you're wanting to convert the .inp file into another input format using macros in excel then just have a button that reads in the text file and writes to another file using the visual basic within excel.

Thank you Tata,


The probleme in France we use NSO and Isymost, my role is to autmatise the calculation of pipeline in subsea, I should use Isymost by using inp from abaqus, I've to develop this macro whitin Excel and also integrate ASME rules in Isymost.
I'm thinking to develop this macro and import this file to Isymost.

Thank you in advance
