Hi Louise,
thanks for the correction. How about your comment on this matter? I got this when I changed the material section only. It says,
***ERROR: in keyword *ELEMENT, file "MBYarn0.inp", line 1506181: Element
number is not an integer for element of type C3D8R.
***NOTE: DUE TO AN INPUT ERROR THE ANALYSIS PRE-PROCESSOR HAS BEEN UNABLE TO
INTERPRET SOME DATA. SUBSEQUENT ERRORS MAY BE CAUSED BY THIS OMISSION
***ERROR: Node/element 10153 cannot be found. Please check that it is defined.
***ERROR: Node/element 10154 cannot be found. Please check that it is defined.
According to the highlighted line, it is referring to the element C3D8R where it is automatically set during the conversion. So I'm totally lost when it keeps mentioning this.

Hi Yanie,
You need to check the line where the error is identified. Without seeing the file I'm afraid I can't guess what the problem might be.

Re: TexGen 3.4.0 export to ABAQUS 6.10-1
Hi Louise,
I think this must be the problem with the voxel numbers provided, I'm just assuming because I related to the nodes/element of the geometry. Perhaps I may need to resize everything to ensure it fits with the voxel number. By the way, is there any samples that successfully run with ABAQUS VOXEL options? I'm glad if you could share any if you have any.

Hi Yanie,
I don't know why you have a problem with element/node numbers. This normally works fine.
If you use the weave wizard to create a simple plain weave with the default dimensions then you should be able to create a voxel mesh output which works fine ( with the couple of changes to the ConstraintDriver name and material section ). Try something like 50x50x10 voxels and you should get a reasonable mesh.

Hi Louise,
If you referring to my previous attachment. What will be your assumption values for the voxel numbers? Do you think it will up to millions nodes to cater those patterns? If I put millions nodes to cater for the yarns only on the Voxel options, could I use the same no of voxel to cater for the yarn + matrix geometry?

Hi Louise,
Ok, this is my output from the plain weave with default dimension and some changes in ConstraintDriver and Material. I still got the message of

Below is the whole warnings and error that I got for the attached image.

However, the geometry look fine for the output matrix+fiber, but I'm not sure how successful the yarn that has been imported in this output. Hope you get the clear picture of what I'm confronting of now.

Re: TexGen 3.4.0 export to ABAQUS 6.10-1
Hi Yanie,
From the error messages you don't seem to have corrected the ConstraintDriver to ConstraintsDriver.
If I simply create a plain weave, export as voxel mesh with 50x50x10 and both yarn and matrix and then import it into Abaqus I get the same error messages as you. If I correct the first *Elastic line and correct the ConstraintDriver in the load cases then I am just left with the following warning:
WARNING: Abaqus/CAE allows only the first node set in a *EQUATION definition to contain more than one node. Node set FACEB violates this rule. The equation using this node set will not be imported. This message is only printed once, so please check all other *EQUATION definitions.
This will always be present if you import into CAE as it can't cope with matching multiple node sets. This is where you need to be running from the command line.
I did all this with TexGen3.5.0 and Abaqus6.10-2.
Please could you check the two corrections and then try again.

Re: TexGen 3.4.0 export to ABAQUS 6.10-1
Hi Louise,
First of all, I'm happy that finally I'm able to run the geometry and sorry for the technical error that occurred while getting the results. I found that the error came from my system where some of the code commented cannot be read by my system. That's the reason why I always get the same error while running.
In addition to that, I also had thoroughly went through the inp file especially to the output filed and the loads. May I know how you interpret the data from this output since I found that you are included the history output in the inp files. As far as I understand the ABAQUS voxel file is created to define the elastic properties of the geometry with imposing of temperature. May I know to which reference that you are referring to and could you explain to me the way you impose the loads? I'm afraid I'm interpreting the loads condition wrongly since I am referring to the geometry created in cae. Sorry, I'm not well-versed in programming. So, pls correct me if I misunderstood any part regarding the theoretical behind the development.

Re: TexGen 3.4.0 export to ABAQUS 6.10-1
Hi Yanie,
Please refer to this paper: "Unit cells for micromechanical analyses of particle-refined composites", Shuguang Li, Anchana Wongsto, Mechanics of Materials 36(2004) 543-572. Particularly the boundary conditions are described in section 4 and the applications of loads are described in section 8. Please note that there are two steps, one for mechanical properties and one for thermoelastic.
