problem in installing ABAQUS/MAKE

[Urmia]

Hi friends,

Unfortunately, I have problem in installing and running ABAQUS/MAKE, you know, I have installed ABAQUS/CAE but I can not find ABAQUS/MAKE. I ran ABAQUS/VERIFICATION but it didnot verified abaqus/make, enclosed to this post you can find the verify file. I know that I must install C++ and FORTRAN, but I do not know that I must install them after or before installing ABAQUS. Would you please tell how can I install ABAQUS including ABAQUS/MAKE? and in addition to abaqus which softwares do I have to install? if it is possible explain the procedure? by the way I use ABAQUS 6.5.

Regards,

You can run ABAQUS/MAKE by typing:

abaqus make

in a command prompt window.
What are you trying to use ABAQUS/MAKE for?

Hello,

I am a beginer in writing user subroutines for ABAQUS, and trying to write a user subroutine (UMESHMOTION) as a part of my MSc. thesis, and as I know, I need ABAQUS/MAKE in order to compile and feed it into abaqus. I do not know, that I am right or not? Would you please tell me what should I do after writing the subroutine (UMESHMOTION) in FORTRAN? How can I feed it into abaqus?:confused:
Thanks alot for your support.

Yes, you can use abaqus make to compile your UMESHMOTION subroutine. The syntax to use is:

abaqus make library=[name_of_fortran_file]

As an alternative, you can use your subroutine by using the command:

abaqus job=[name of input file] user=[name of fortran file]
