Basically, the material data used for the analysis with Abaqus Unified FEA are not displayed in the ODB. A simple Python script helps here.
Two materials are used in the present model:
RUBBER, Neo-Hooke, Hyperelastic Material Model
STEEL, steel, elastic-plastic material model
This short script allows you to view the material data and models used.
The input is done via the command line (Kernel Command Line Interface) at the bottom of Abaqus/CAE (Module Visualization) or Abaqus/Viewer.
# Get current viewport, ODB file of current viewport, filename and path
CV = session.viewports[session .currentViewportName]
odbFile = CV.displayedObject
ON = odbFile.path
ON
Used_Mats=session.odbs[ON]
print Used_Mats.materials
The output looks like this :
Now you can request more detailed information about the existing material data via the command line:
print Used_Mats.materials[‘STEEL’]
supplies
({‘conductivity’: ‘Conductivity object’, ‘density’: ‘Density object’, ‘description’: ”, ‘elastic’: ‘Elastic object’, ‘electricalConductivity’: ‘ElectricalConductivity object’, ‘materialIdentifier’: ”, ‘name’: ‘STEEL’})
information on which data is available for a material. Here, for example, the thermal conductivity, the density, information about the elasticity and the electrical conductivity. Now you can request further information: print Used_Mats.materials[‘STEEL’].elastic
Examples:
print Used_Mats.materials[‘RUBBER’].hyperelastic
print Used_Mats.materials[‘STEEL’].plastic
print Used_Mats.materials[‘STEEL‘].elastic
ATTENTION:
The material name inside the square brackets must be in quotation marks! Depending on the editor, this can lead to problems.
