Axis Systems

The 3DEXPERIENCE platform supports importing axis system features from Nastran.

Features Supported for Import from Abaqus

You have limited editing capability for imported axis system features. These are bulk features with imported data for more than one axis system.

Nastran Data Card Field Abaqus Keyword Notes 3DEXPERIENCE Feature
CORD2C *ORIENTATION, DEFINITION=COORDINATES, SYSTEM=CYLINDRICAL Orientations
CID *ORIENTATION, NAME= The CID is preserved when you export CORD2C.

All of the imported CORD2C cards in a FEM assembly with the same CID are merged and treated as a single axis system during Nastran export (unless the axis system content is modified due to user operations, such as changing the product transformation).

RID When nonzero, the referenced coordinate system data is considered for transformation
Ai, Bi, Ci Point coordinates to define the respective axis system directions
CORD2R *ORIENTATION, DEFINITION=COORDINATES Orientations
CID *ORIENTATION, NAME= The CID is preserved when you export CORD2R.

All of the imported CORD2R cards in a FEM assembly with the same CID are merged and treated as a single axis system during Nastran export (unless the axis system content is modified due to user operations, such as changing the product transformation).

RID When nonzero, the referenced coordinate system data is considered for transformation

CORD2S *ORIENTATION, DEFINITION=COORDINATES, SYSTEM=SPHERICAL Orientations
CID *ORIENTATION, NAME=

The CID is preserved when you export CORD2S.

All of the imported CORD2S cards in a FEM assembly with the same CID are merged and treated as a single axis system during Nastran export (unless the axis system content is modified due to user operations, such as changing the product transformation).
