Preparing a User Subroutine

You can upload a precompiled Abaqus user subroutine to an Abaqus simulation in Simulation Manager and then submit the simulation to run on the cloud.

Before you begin: Confirm that you have a compatible Fortran compiler and a compatible version of Linux. For more information, see the SIMULIA Established Products Program Directory | Prerequisites | Abaqus.

Running an Abaqus Simulation
  1. Create a user subroutine source file.
  2. Compile the user subroutine source file.
  3. From a command line, run abaqus make with the library option set to the location of the user subroutine source file.

    The abaqus make utility builds a shared library of the user subroutine. For more information on abaqus make, see Making User-Defined Executables and Subroutines.

  4. From a 3DDashboard, open Simulation Manager.
  5. From Simulation Manager, upload the shared library file to the Content tab of an existing simulation.

    Note: The existing simulation must also have an input file uploaded to run.
    For more information, see Creating an Abaqus Simulation Object.

  6. Run the simulation.
