In addition to this guide, there are two other guides that contain worked problems. The Abaqus Example Problems Guide contains many solved examples from which users can learn how to run simulations involving nontrivial physics. Many of these problems are quite difficult and test a combination of capabilities in the code. The Abaqus Verification Guide contains a large number of tests that are intended to provide evidence that the implementation of the numerical model produces the expected results for one or several well-defined options in the code. The qualification process for new Abaqus releases includes running and verifying results for all problems in this guide, the Abaqus Example Problems Guide, and the Abaqus Verification Guide. All input files referred to in the guides are included with the Abaqus release in compressed archive files. The abaqus fetch utility is used to extract these input files for use. For example, to fetch input file barrelvault_s8r5_reg22.inp, type abaqus fetch job=barrelvault_s8r5_reg22.inp Parametric study script (.psf) and user subroutine (.f) files can be fetched in the same manner. All files for a particular problem can be obtained by leaving off the file extension. The abaqus fetch utility is explained in detail in Fetching sample input files. It is sometimes useful to search the input files. The findkeyword utility is used to locate input files that contain user-specified input. This utility is defined in Querying the keyword/problem database. | |||||||
