I get the following error on using readFil():
I am guessing this is because I had asked for a large Number interval=200 in the file output:
*FILE OUTPUT,NUMBER INTERVAL=200
and this is creating a large matrix. However, I have used Matlab to deal with very large matrices before (probably larger), and it has never given such an error before.
I saw that someone had posted about this on the forum (https://abaqus2matlab.wixsite.com/abaqus2matlab/forum/abaqus2matlab-users-forum/array-size-problem-with-getmatrix), and the first solution you suggested was to break up the matrices, and then import them. But how would I do that while directly importing from the fin file?
Are there any other solutions?
PS: I am using Abaqus Explicit, just in case.
I got your email. Let me know when you will be available in TeamViewer.
Wow, I never got them. I just wrote to you from a separate email address. Please let me know if you don't get it.
Yes I got them. I have already answered to your emails multiple times.
Hi George, I wrote a couple of emails to you about setting up the teamviewer appointment. Did you receive them?
An easy way would be to simply divide the step of the Abaqus/Explicit analysis into smaller steps, each of which will contain a lower number of increments of the original analysis step. Also, each one of these smaller steps will be defined in a separate Abaqus input file, along with the *RESTART,READ and *RESTART,WRITE options (the initial input file will contain only the *RESTART,WRITE option). After each Abaqus input file is run, you will run the next Abaqus input file using the *RESTART option as above, according to the syntax:
abaqus job=currentInpFIleName oldjob=previousInpFileName.
After all individual Abaqus/Explicit analyses have been run and their fil files converted to the corresponding ASCII fin files, you will read the latter using Abaqus2Matlab/fil2Matlab one by one and then concatenate the results inside Matlab.,
Best regards.
