12.3 Improved translation of Abaqus substructure data to MSC.ADAMS

Product: Abaqus/Standard  

Benefits: The abaqus adams translator now offers complete coverage of substructure functionality and improved translation over previous releases. This execution procedure, which was previously available only with the Abaqus Interface for MSC.ADAMS, is now included as a component of Abaqus/Standard.

Description: The abaqus adams execution procedure can now translate all functionality in an Abaqus substructure into modal neutral (.mnf) file format, including translation of eigensolver data from a SIM database. Translating substructure data into .mnf format enables you to account for flexibility in a component during a dynamic analysis in MSC.ADAMS.
