FEM coupling ABAQUS for temperature-dependent materials

Hi Neergaard,

Immediately before the Abaqus solver is called, the _i.inp, cel.inp, and pm.inp files are generated.

* cel.inp - contains updated elements and orientations.
* pm.inp - contains updated sections and meterials.
* _i.inp - is a copy of the original inp with the contents of the cel and pm files inserted just before the first *Step keyword.
The only arguments that can be passed to the "solver" are listed in the link below. They only relate to the location of the FEM file. You could encode more inputs in the FEM file as ** comments for the Python script to read. You could also put a python file in the same directory as the FEM.

When you implement your own "solver" you only need to make sure that when your script finishes the _i.inp has been executed (as determined by _i.dat and _i.fil files in the same folder). If Abaqus fails with a solver error, HyperSizer should be able to pick it from parsing the dat file.
