A Question for ANSYS to ADINA

[jiande]

I have just got a small program call ANSYS2ADINA, which could change ANSYS FE model into ADINA FE model. Open the program folder there are 5 APDL programs and one file with PY extension.

I don't know how to open the file with PY extension. May be I have to have pathon installed?

Who can help?

Thanks.

Yes, files ending with PY are typically python files. Note that python files are simply text files with python commands. You should be able to open such a file using any text editor, and then run it using python (which can be downloaded for free).

hi..... i'm also dealing with this problems.....Adina is very bad at modeling but the solver is extremely good. So, i built my model in Ansys and exported all nodes and elements to txt files, modified txt files and import those nodes and elements to Adina......hic.....it took long time!
