i would like to know if i can directly modify the .inp file and run it with
the user defined changes made. I tried this, but the file was overwritten
and the changes made were not effective.
Can anyone help me on this

import model from file **.inp,
make your changes,
(make a new job, )
type in the scripting prompt
mdb.Models['yourModelName'].keywordBlock.synchVersions()
Try. It should do the trick.

using cae, you can go job module and find write input file. then
open the input file either using wordpad or notepad. you can change
anything you want in the input file. if you want to run the input
file, then use command prompt at which abaqus working directory is
located. type abaqus j=jobname input=input filename and etc.

Chand,

You can directly modify the .inp file with the changes that u want and can run that file using the command prompt with the file being written from the same location.
Make sure that you save the file in the same directory and use to run the analysis using the same directory.

after specifying the path, the command to run the analysis in abaqus 6.6-1 version is

abq661 job= input file name without inp inter

After the job is completed you can view the results using abaqus viewer by opening the .odb file which is created in the same directory.
If you have any errors you can see them in the .dat file and hence can modify the .inp file

If you have any questions still, let me know!

1. actually we need the wave to get damped after crossing one surface. we
tried with the option damping, but there is no variation in the
displacements plots when we varied the damping value(alpha).
2. also we are unable to tie two edges (both of these are obtained after
partitioning).
3. we have tried giving impedance values to the damping region but we didnt
observe change in the plots when the parameters are varied.

can u help out us in overcoming these problems
we have abaqus 6.5-1 version

thanx for ur previous message

If you know Python, you may use the following code to run "any.inp"
through Run Script in CAE.

import abaqus
import abaqusConstants

myJob = mdb.JobFromInputFile(inputFileName="any.inp", name="any")
myJob.submit()
myJob.waitForCompletion()
