Dear All,
I am writing VAM based Finite element frame work numerical code and for which, I am taking the mesh details (C3D8- brick element) from ABAQUS through PYTHON program.
The problem is that where I am not able to map the actual and local coordinate for each element due to the variation in the pattern of nodal connectivity in the imported abaqus elements. Commonly, this problems arises while have some partitioned mesh system in the structure. I am looking for some suggestion related to how one can maintain the consistent pattern of nodal connectivity in each element in the ABAQUS even if the structure is partitioned.
Thank you all in advances
