thanks for reporting the problem.
this reader is not tested properly

moab is looking for *PART or *ASSEMBLY keywords.

Even if I modified the file, it is not read correctly

I am working on it

I will make a pull request

Thanks,
Iulian

Subject: [MOAB-dev] mbconvert from abaqus to h5m

Hello,

I would like to use the mbconvert tool to translate abaqus '.inp' files
to '.h5m' files.  I have tried the following command:

mbconvert -g tet4.inp tet4.h5m

on moab 4.6 and 4.8 (tet4.inp is attached), but both return '.h5m' files
without any mesh data.

'mbconvert -l' returns:

Format  Description                    Read  Write  File Name Suffixes
------  -----------------------------  ----  ----- ------------------
...
Abaqus mesh  ABAQUS INP mesh format    yes     no  abq
...

which makes me think I should be able to run the conversion.

Am I missing something, or is this not yet functional?

Thanks,
- Jake
