Simulation using the Abaqus™ connector

The Abaqus workflow in JewelSuite enables you to create an Abaqus simulation case. The workflow uses default settings. You can edit these settings in the input deck before the Build Deck step (e.g., changing includes), and after the Build Deck step (e.g., adjusting convergence settings).

Abaqus simulation from JewelSuite is carried out on a 3D tetrahedron mesh. For details on creating 3D meshes, see 3D Meshing.

 

While working in the Abaqus workflow, you will need to QC and interact with the deck. For details, see the following sections:

Input file

General settings

 

The functionality needed to create your case is available in the Workflow button group and contains the following forms:

Create Case

Assign Data

Initialization

Create Pore Pressure

Create Temperature

Steps

Build Deck

 

You can specify the settings and execute the simulation using the Simulate button group. You can also build a remote deck and import results from other simulations:
