Launching Abaqus Study

When you launch Abaqus Study on your dashboard, you can either create a new simulation study or open an existing study. A simulation study is a simulation process in which your jobs and content are stored.

Note: Before you launch Abaqus Study, you must configure your 3DOrchestrate Station to launch Abaqus, as described in Configuring Applications in ApplicationInfo.xml.

This task shows you how to:

Create a Simulation Study

  1. From the Compass, drag Abaqus Study onto your dashboard.
  2. From the Getting Started page that appears, click Run Job to create a new simulation study and to configure your job.

    A simulation study is a simulation process that will be created on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform in which your jobs and content will be stored.

  3. Configure your job, as described in Configuring an Abaqus Job.

Open an Existing Simulation Study

  1. From the Compass compass, drag Abaqus Study onto your dashboard.
  2. From the Getting Started page that appears, click Open An Existing Study .

    A 3DSearch window displays all the simulation processes to which you have read access and that are compatible with Abaqus Study (the Simulation Kind attribute is set to adhoc).

  3. From the 3DSearch window, select the simulation process representing the simulation study you want to open and click OK.
    Abaqus Study displays the jobs associated with the simulation study.
  4. You can also do either of the following to open an existing simulation study:
    • Drag a simulation process representing a simulation study into Abaqus Study from another dashboard app, such as 3DSpace or My Simulations.
    • Drag a job from the Simulation Job Monitor app into Abaqus Study.
