beam_offset_coupling
If beam_offset_coupling=ON, beam element offsets are translated by creating new nodes at the offset locations, changing the beam connectivity to the new nodes, and rigidly coupling the new and original nodes.
If beam_offset_coupling=OFF, beam element offsets are translated to the *CENTROID and *SHEAR CENTER options, which are suboptions of the *BEAM GENERAL SECTION option.
The setting for this parameter is ignored if the beam element references a PBARL or PBEAML property or if the beam offset has a significant component in the direction of the beam axis. In these situations the beam offsets are always translated as if beam_offset_coupling=ON.
This option can be defined in the Abaqus environment file as follows:
fromnastran_beam_offset_coupling={OFF | ON}
beam_orientation_vector
If beam_orientation_vector=OFF, beam cross-section orientations are translated by creating new nodes at the tips of vectors defining the first principal direction of the cross-section and changing the beam connectivity to the new nodes.
If beam_orientation_vector=ON, beam cross-sections are translated by defining vectors on the *BEAM SECTION and *BEAM GENERAL SECTION options.
This option can be defined in the Abaqus environment file as follows:
fromnastran_beam_orientation_vector={OFF | ON}
cbar
This option is used to define the 2-node beam that is created from CBAR and CBEAM elements. The default is B31.
This option can be defined in the Abaqus environment file as follows:
fromnastran_cbar=2-node-beam-element
cquad4
This option is used to define the 4-node shell that is created from CQUAD4 elements. The default is S4R. If a reduced-integration element is chosen, the enhanced hourglass formulation is applied automatically.
This option can be defined in the Abaqus environment file as follows:
fromnastran_cquad4=4-node-shell-element
chexa
This option is used to define the 8-node brick that is created from CHEXA elements. The default is C3D8I. If a reduced-integration element is chosen, the enhanced hourglass formulation is applied automatically.
This option can be defined in the Abaqus environment file as follows:
fromnastran_chexa=8-node-brick-element
ctetra
This option is used to define the 10-node tetrahedron that is created from CTETRA elements. The default is C3D10.
This option can be defined in the Abaqus environment file as follows:
fromnastran_ctetra=10-node-tetrahedron-element
plotel
By default, PLOTEL elements are not translated. If plotel=ON, PLOTEL elements are translated to T3D2 truss elements in an element set named PLOTEL_TRUSSES. The cross-sectional area of the trusses is 1 . 0 \times 1 0 ^ { - 2 0 } , and the material has a Young’s modulus, E, equal to 1.0.
cdh_weld
By default, CHEXA elements with RBE3 elements at all eight corner nodes are translated to the type of 8-node element specified in the chexa parameter. If cdh_weld=RIGID, CHEXA elements with RBE3 elements at all eight corner nodes are translated to rigid fasteners in Abaqus. If cdh_weld=COMPLIANT, CHEXA elements with RBE3 elements at all eight corner nodes are translated to compliant fasteners in Abaqus.
3.2.31 TRANSLATING Abaqus FILES TO NASTRAN BULK DATA FILES

• “Translating Nastran bulk data files to Abaqus input files,” Section 3.2.30
Overview
The translator from Abaqus to Nastran converts certain entities in an Abaqus file into equivalent entities in Nastran. Only “flat” Abaqus files can be translated; i.e., the Abaqus file cannot contain parts and assemblies.
Using the translator
The Abaqus input data must be in a file with the extension .inp or .sim. If you specify an .inp file, the execution procedure translates selected keywords and creates a Nastran bulk data file with the extension .bdf. If you use the substructure option and specify a substructure .sim file, the execution procedure translates the substructure data to Nastran DMIG coefficients and creates a Nastran bulk data file with the extension .bdf.
Summary of Abaqus keywords translated
In the *ELEMENT usages listed below, an italicized x indicates that all Abaqus elements beginning with the preceding label will be mapped to the Nastran entity shown. For example, the statement *ELEMENT, C3D4x indicates that the selected Abaqus-to-Nastran translation applies to the Abaqus elements C3D4, C3D4H, and C3D4T.

Command summary
abaqus tonastran
job=job-name [input=input-file] [substructure]
[complex={YES | NO}]
Command line options
job
This option is used to specify the name of the Nastran bulk data file to be output by the translator. It is also the default name of the Abaqus file. Diagnostics created by the translator are written to a file named job-name.log.
input
This option is used to specify the name of the file containing the Abaqus data if it is different from job-name.
substructure
This option is used to translate a substructure within an Abaqus .sim file into Nastran bulk data file (.bdf) format.
complex
This option is used to determine how structural damping terms are represented. If complex=YES (default), structural damping terms are written as the imaginary part of the stiffness matrix; if complex=NO, structural damping terms are written as a separate real matrix.
3.2.32 TRANSLATING ANSYS INPUT FILES TO PARTIAL Abaqus INPUT FILES
Products: Abaqus/Standard Abaqus/Explicit
Reference
• “Execution procedure for Abaqus: overview,” Section 3.1.1
Overview
The translator from ANSYS to Abaqus converts certain entities in an ANSYS blocked coded database file into their equivalent in an Abaqus input file.
Using the translator
The abaqus fromansys translator can convert ANSYS blocked coded database files (.cdb) into a “flat” Abaqus input file; that is, an Abaqus input file that is not written in terms of parts and assemblies. The .cdb file must be created in ANSYS using the following command:
CDWRITE , , , cdb
The second field of the CDWRITE command may contain ALL or DB. The eighth field may contain BLOCKED. Any other use of the CDWRITE command will create problems for the translator.
