What is ABAQUS​

Abaqus FEA is a software suite for finite element analysis and computer-aided engineering. Our licenses are provided by the Engineering Department.

Using ABAQUS​

This is an example of a SLURM submissions script given to us by a user. Please consult the user guide to confirm you are using the tool correctly.

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH --job-name=4p_Beam_VUMAT_v1_2
#SBATCH --ntasks=6
#SBATCH --ntasks-per-node=6
#SBATCH --cpus-per-task=1
#SBATCH --time=05:05:00
#SBATCH --mem=120000
#SBATCH --output=out-%j.log
#SBATCH --error=err-%j.err

module load abaqus
module load intel

unset SLURM_GTIDS
abaqus interactive analysis job=4p_Beam_VUMAT_v1_2 input=4p_Beam_VUMAT_v1_2.inp user=Test_VUMAT.for cpus=6 mp_mode=mpi double

Please note that the number of tasks you request in Slurm must match the cpus you use in the command line. The Slurm Bash environment variable $SLURM_NTASKS can be used to write more robust code.
