Hi there,

I'm new to abaqus. I have to import some parts from a .sat file. This
appear to work. But abaqus is in principle supposed to import the
parts as a non-editable base feature. My question is, is there a
workaround in order to make these imported parts editable?

Thanks

Mr. Bellam

Dear Mr Bellam,

What's ABAQUS?

Sincerely,
David Janes

Not unless you can re-define the import geometry in Abaqus. Try
"breaking" it from a group type of object to it's sub element
geometry...

Dave

P.S. Abaqus is a FEA package.

Do you mean something like, exporting the geometry to a different
format, and importing it back?

Thanks

Mr. Bellam

What do you mean by "editable"? If you mean "features"; doubt it. Have
you tried looking for an Abacus news group?

None exist, maybe try the following:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ABAQUS/
http://www.engin.umich.edu/caen/wls/software/mcad/abaqus.html
http://www.arsc.edu/support/howtos/usingabaqus.html

Or, type ABAQUS in Google. If they make me look smart, they can make you look not
too stupid, too. Or, as Google said: 87,500 for abaqus. (0.15 seconds) so little
time, so much information, no newsgroups involved.

¡Mucho gusto!

David - You should try www.vivisimo.com for a search engine... It groups
the searches in a really useful way.

Ya - glad this Pro/E one exists. Probably there are folks talking about
ABAQUS over at sci.engr.mech... just guessing
