Prototype Application for Abaqus

If you are willing to create ABAQUS plug-ins start with the propotype model provided in the code, inside programming/abaqus/prototypeApp, which can be downloaded here:

https://github.com/saullocastro/programming/archive/master.zip

It provides a straightforward way to check your new GUI. For more detail see the ABAQUS GUI User’s Manual and look for “prototypeApp”. The content of the example package provided is:

appIcons.py
run_prototypeApp.bat
prototypeApp.py
prototypeMainWindow.py
prototypeToolsetGui.py
testDB.py
testFrom.py

In the DESICOS project (see the documentation or the code) we have done a plugin for ABAQUS based on this prototypeApp described above. It may be useful as a reference for commands and so on... to run this plugin execute file “START_GUI.bat” inside the main folder

Note

ABAQUS must be installed and executable with the command “abaqus cae”
