Abapy Documentation¶
- Abaqus Python “AbaPy” contains tools to build, postprocess and plot automatic finite element simulations using Abaqus. It is divided into four parts:
- mesh: contains finite element mesh utilities allowing building, modifying, ploting and exporting to various formats.
- postproc: contains utilities to read in Abaqus odb files and represent history and field outputs using custom classes. These classes allow easy calculations, export, storage (using pickle/cPickle).
- materials: contains functions to preprocess materials before finite element simulations.
- indentation: contains all indentation dedicated tools.
- advanced_examples: contains examples using abapy and other python packages to perform research higher level tasks.
