[Insight-users] Abaqus??

[C.Cagatay Bilgin]

Hi H-B, 

There might be a better way than this and that's 
why I waited for a little while before answering. 
I had a similar problem a couple of months ago
and I tried STLWriter from VTK. I was able to 
produce the STL file but was not able to import 
the mesh for some reason that I don't remember. 
I instead imported the boundary points of my object 
and used the meshing provided by Abaqus. 

You can interact with Abaqus through their scripting 
environment and that's how I proceeded. I introduced 
points one by one and connected them to form the object 
in Abaqus. If I remember correctly they are using Python. 
I can dig up my repository and find the little script I used if 
you wish to proceed with that, but again there might be a 
better way then this. 

Regards, 
Cagatay
