Where are the material infos in the abaqus file

Hello all,

in an older version of Trelis the exported abaqus file contained material information. My export command is: "export abaqus “Filename” everything dimension3 "
Here an example output:

********************************** A S S E M B L Y ************************************
**
*ASSEMBLY, NAME=ASSEMBLY1
**
*INSTANCE, NAME=Part-Default_1, PART=Part-Default
*END INSTANCE
**
*END ASSEMBLY
**
**
**
*MATERIAL, NAME = glas
*ELASTIC, TYPE=ISOTROPIC
0.000000e+000, 0.000000e+000
*DENSITY
0.000000e+000
*CONDUCTIVITY,TYPE=ISO
7.000000e+000
*SPECIFIC HEAT
0.000000e+000
**
**

Now we use Trelis 15.0.2 but the material information are lost.

********************************** A S S E M B L Y ************************************
**
*ASSEMBLY, NAME=ASSEMBLY1
**
*INSTANCE, NAME=Part-Default_1, PART=Part-Default
*END INSTANCE
**
*END ASSEMBLY
**
**

Is there a new command required or is it a bug?
If anyone has an idea of how to do this it would be greatly appreciated.

The material info should be listed. To better understand what is going on, how are you creating and assigning materials to blocks before exporting?

#3

Thank you for your quick response.

Here my simplified command to create materials and set blocks to material

###material ###
create material name “glas” conductivity 7

set Material to blocks

block 1 material “glas”

Is this question really so hard to answer? I believe it’s a bug but it could be also a new command.

If anyone has an idea of how to do this it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the post. We tried the following:

reset
brick x 1
vol 1 int 3
mesh vol 1
create material name “glass” conductivity 7 density 7.777
block 1 volume 1
block 1 material “glass”
export abaqus “Filename” everything dimension 3 overwrite

The material name is in the Abaqus file, but the conductivity and density numbers are not. We tried this in Trelis 14.0.5 and it worked correctly, but it isn’t working in the current version. We asked one of the developers to look at it.
