[Geoqus] Part problem

[visualdzivdzan at netscape.net]

Dear Tobias
I am sorry for the unprecise answer I posted. Example I stated was 
1.3.1 Upsetting of a cylindrical billet from Abq6.6 Example Problems 
Manual. Pierre though, described the procedure I had in mind pretty 
good.

It's not possible to give a definitive answer to this without more 
details
on exactly how this will be done and the type of geometry that will be
created. If the geometry consists of flat faces with straight edges 
then the
following approach may work:

- Create a 3D 'Point' part
- Create datum points for each corner
- Create Wires using these points
- Create faces using the Wires and the 'Create Face' repair function

This approach could be scripted.

Hello,

I have a question concerning the creation of parts. Does anyone know if 
there's
a possibility to create a part by giving Abaqus the three spatial 
coordinates
of every corner of the part? Since I use parts with a complicated 
geometry and
it costs a lot of time to sketch only the X-Y shape and then carving 
the z
dimension out of these blocks in the CAE it would be much more 
comfortable.
Also I can't imagine that these possibility isn't include in Abaqus. 
Maybe with
a python script, but I didn't find anything in the scripting reference. 
I
already found out about geometry files but sadly I don't have access to 
any of
the programs producing them and it doesn't seem effective to manipulate 
these
files myself.
Thank for any help and have a nice weekend!
Cheers,
Tobias
