Debug and troubleshoot your scripts
Discover productivity tips and script structure best practices
Abaqus Scripting Interface (ASI)
The Abaqus Scripting Interface (ASI) is a powerful Python-based interface embedded within Abaqus. It is designed for finite element analysts to automate workflows, create custom utilities, and even integrate Abaqus with external tools. Whether you want to generate plots, edit models, or read/write simulation data, ASI provides a flexible and programmable environment.
Python Demonstration During the Webinar
This webinar includes a live demo that will show how to
Write simple scripts to automate repetitive tasks
Access and manipulate .cae and .odb files
Navigate the object structure of Abaqus
Debug Python scripts efficiently
Interact directly with simulation results via scripting
Who Should Attend?
Abaqus users looking to begin scripting
Analysts who want to reduce manual operations
Engineers seeking better integration between modeling, simulation, and reporting
No prior programming experience is required, but basic familiarity with Abaqus/CAE is recommended.
