ABAQUS JOB frame_xpl COMPLETED

It is desirable to perform a datacheck analysis before running a simulation to ensure that the input data are correct. However, it is possible to combine the datacheck and analysis phases of the simulation by using the following command:

abaqus job=frame_xpl interactive

If a simulation is expected to take a substantial amount of time, it is convenient to run it in the background by omitting the interactive parameter:

abaqus job=frame_xpl

(The above commands apply for the standard ABAQUS installation on a workstation. However, ABAQUS jobs can be run in batch queues on some computers. If you have any questions, ask your systems administrator how to run ABAQUS on your system. Details of the ABAQUS commands are documented in Chapter 3, “Execution Procedures,” of the ABAQUS Analysis User's Manual.)
