Hi again,
Im trying to run the A2M main script, but matlab keeps outputting an error that says
"Error using exploreFieldOdb (line 109) The file JoinLine_A2M.odb does not exist.
Error in (line59) out=xploreFieldOdb(odb_name)"
The original odb file does exist, however there isn't any odb file in the GUI output folder. Abaqus runs the analysis fine, and there are 0 errors in the .msg file. I have tried copying and pasting the odb file inside the a2M_GUI_Output folder, but the code deletes it when its run.
What could be the problem??
Many thanks,
Check the Abaqus output configuration:
Ensure the Abaqus job is properly set up to generate the output database (ODB) file.
Verify the Abaqus analysis step settings are configured to write the ODB file.
Verify the Abaqus output directory:
Confirm the Abaqus job is writing the ODB file to the expected directory.
By default, the ODB file is saved in the same directory as the Abaqus job input file.
Make sure the A2M main script is looking for the ODB file in the correct location.
Check permissions and access:
Ensure the MATLAB script has the necessary read permissions to access the ODB file.
Verify the user account running the MATLAB script has the required access to the ODB file.
