Fortran Compiler for Linux

[pantunes]

Hi!!

This is my first post, so, I must introduce my self! :wink:
I'm a portuguese PhD student working at the constitutive modeling and non-linear finite element analysis fields, namely large deformations and contact analysis using ABAQUS FEA package...

I'm having some problems with the installation of the Intel Fortran compilers in ABAQUS 6.6.3 (Linux platform). I'm not a experienced user of Linux but what get me to Linux was the need to find the right compilers from ABAQUS in order to create a *UHYPER subroutine. I have now the right compilers for this version of ABAQUS, but I don't understand is how ABAQUS will "find" the compilers I have installed. The answers at the ABAQUS web page are not very helpful for the linux version....

I try to compile the *.f file with the GNU compiler installed with Suse Linux, but the compiler wasn't able to find the aba_param_dp.inc file.

Can you help me??

Many thanks!

Paulo

Welcome Paulo!

In order for ABAQUS to find the Intel compilers if you need to set the environmental variable PATH. Typically the Intel compilers are installed in /opt/intel/... on a Linux computer.

You can likely copy the aba_param_dp.inc file from a path that is similar to the following: /opt/abaqus/6.6-1/site/aba_param_dp.inc.
Note, however, that you may run into problems with shared libraries if you attempt to compile your Fortran code using the gnu compilers.

Hello Jorgen!

Thanks for your help!
After some work, the Intel compilers are now running well with ABAQUS!

Kind regards,
