The model attributes describe characteristics of a model and are stored with a model in the model database. The following list describes the attributes of an ABAQUS/CAE model:
The description of the model. If you have many similar models in a model database, you can use the model description to distinguish between the models. The description that you enter is stored with the model attributes; the description is not written to the input file or to the output database.
The physical constants for the model. You can enter values for the absolute zero temperature and the Stefan-Boltzmann constant. These values are needed to specify surface emissivity and radiation conditions in heat transfer analyses.
Restart information that will start the analysis using data from a previous analysis. You can specify the following:
The name of the job from which ABAQUS/CAE will read the restart information.
The name of the step from which ABAQUS/CAE will restart the analysis.
The increment or the interval of the step from which ABAQUS/CAE will restart the analysis.
Submodel information that will be used to drive submodel boundary conditions in the model. You can specify the following:
The job from which the global solution will be used to drive the submodel boundary conditions.
Whether a shell global model will be used to drive a solid submodel.
