I'm trying to access the History output of a ongoing FSI simulation in Abaqus (Abaqus Standard/Abaqus CFD). I tried doing it in two ways:
1. XY Data - History Output
2. Abaqus python script
For both cases, the History output showed Zero. I noticed this problem didn't happen when the simulation (step) was completed.
For both cases, I checked that the frequency of the History output request was correctly defined. I requested the History output at approximate time steps of 0.0001 sec. I defined this through the "Interval" option (step time/number of intervals) which in my case was 0.2 sec/2000 intervals = 0.0001 sec
Therefore, my questions are:
1. Is there a way to access the History Output of an ongoing simulation?
2. If so, how?
Any suggestions are welcomed. Also, please let me know if you think I'm missing something.
Thanks,
Jose
Hi.
Did you specify a correct output frequency? You may try to consider every x units of time or from time points to request abaqus to write a history output.
Hello Mohd Ritzman Abdul Karim ,
For both the FE and CFD jobs, I specified the output frequency to be at approximate time steps of 0.0001 sec. I defined this through the "Interval" option (step time/number of intervals) which in my case was 0.2 sec/2000 intervals = 0.0001 sec. This was correctly defined because I can access the Field outputs for both FE and CFD simulations with no problem through Abaqus/Viewer. I just can't access the History Output for some reason. Also, I can see in the .STA file of the CFD job that the Field and History outputs were written.
I did not try yet the "time points" or "every x units of time" options. I will try them and update my answer.
Hi Jose,
Did you manage to solve your problem. It seems that I have the same problem as you. Could you please let me know. Thanks!
