Import ABAQUS Mesh File

PREFEKO supports the import of mesh files from ABAQUS .inp files.

The various options for the card panel are as described globally or at the other import options:

Figure 1. The IN - Include an external file (ABAQUS) dialog.


Here for ABAQUS mesh files, the ABAQUS element set (ELSET command) is converted to the Feko label.

Points are imported similar to the case for NASTRAN files, for example, they are available in PREFEKO as points (as if defined by DP cards) of the form Nxxx where xxx is the index of the grid point. The coordinate values of the point are available as variables of the form #n1234x, #n1234y and #n1234z.
Note: That points are not included by default.
