Use the Convert panel to exchange some data between different solver formats. It exchanges data between two card image solvers, or a card image solver and a dictionary solver. For more information about card image and dictionary solvers, see the Interfaces section.
|
The data that is converted from one format to another are component thickness and material properties, Young's Modulus, Poisson's Ratio, and density ( 
).
The other (2.0) solver choice should be used for those solvers that use the dictionary format. All of the other solvers listed are card image solvers.
Please note this information regarding transferring thickness between solvers:
Conversion |
Description |
Nastran to LS-DYNA |
It is possible to transfer overall component thickness and individual element nodal thicknesses. |
ANSYS to Nastran |
Thickness of individual components and overall component thickness defined in ANSYS Real constant table can be transferred to individual element nodal thickness for Nastran. |
ANSYS to Abaqus |
Thickness defined in the real constant table of ANSYS is converted to the corresponding component average thickness in Abaqus. |
Abaqus to PAM CRASH 2G |
Component thickness defined in Abaqus is converted to corresponding component thickness in PAM CRASH 2G. |
Abaqus to ANSYS |
Component thickness defined in Abaqus is converted to corresponding component thickness in ANSYS. |
There are no subpanels on the Convert panel. All inputs are located on the main panel.
Input |
Action |
source solver |
Select the existing source solver format. This is the solver format for the data you wish to transfer. |
destination solver |
Select the appropriate destination format. This is the solver format in which to save the data. |
