*MAP SOLUTION
13.1 *MAP SOLUTION: Map a solution from an old mesh to a new mesh.
This option is used to transfer solution variables from an earlier analysis to a new mesh that occupies the same
space.
Product: ABAQUS/Standard
Type: Model data
Level: Model
Reference:
•
“Mesh-to-mesh solution mapping,” Section 12.4.1 of the ABAQUS Analysis User’s Manual
Optional parameters:
INC
Set this parameter equal to the increment number from which the old solution will be read. If this
parameter is omitted, the last increment for which a solution is available will be read.
The STEP parameter must be specified if the INC parameter is used.
STEP
Set this parameter equal to the step number from which the old solution will be read. If this
parameter is omitted, the last step and increment for which a solution is available will be read.
UNBALANCED STRESS
Set UNBALANCED STRESS=RAMP (default) if the stress unbalance is to be resolved linearly
over the step.
Set UNBALANCED STRESS=STEP if the stress unbalance is to be resolved in the first
increment.
Data line to translate an old-model mesh:
First (and only) line:
1. Value of the translation to be applied in the X-direction.
2. Value of the translation to be applied in the Y-direction.
3. Value of the translation to be applied in the Z-direction.
Data lines to translate and/or rotate an old-model mesh:
First line:
1. Value of the translation to be applied in the X-direction.
