*SYMMETRIC RESULTS TRANSFER

18.55

*SYMMETRIC RESULTS TRANSFER:

Import results from an axisymmetric or partial

three-dimensional analysis.

This option is used to transfer a solution from an axisymmetric analysis to a three-dimensional model or to
transfer the solution of a partial three-dimensional model to a full three-dimensional model. It can be used
only in conjunction with the *SYMMETRIC MODEL GENERATION option.

Product:

ABAQUS/Standard

Type:

Model data

Level:

This option is not supported in a model defined in terms of an assembly of part instances.

*SYMMETRIC MODEL GENERATION

Optional parameters:

STEP

Set this parameter equal to the step number on the restart file at which the results must be obtained.
If this parameter is omitted, the results will be obtained at the last available step found on the restart
file.

INC

Set this parameter equal to the increment number on the restart file at which the results must be
obtained. If this parameter is omitted, the results will be obtained at the end of the step specified by
the STEP parameter.

ITERATION

This parameter is relevant only if the solution is transferred from a previous direct cyclic analysis.

Set this parameter equal to the iteration number on the restart file at which the results must be

obtained. Since restart information can be written only at the end of an iteration in a direct cyclic
analysis, the INC parameter is irrelevant and is ignored if the ITERATION parameter is specified.

If this parameter is omitted, the results will be obtained at the end of the step specified by the

STEP parameter.

UNBALANCED STRESS

Set UNBALANCED STRESS=STEP (default) if the stress unbalance is to be resolved in the first
increment.
