[MOAB-dev] mbconvert from abaqus to h5m

[Grindeanu, Iulian R.]

Hello Jake,
What do you plan to do with this converter? 
How did you generate the abaqus input file? 
It is clear this reader needs more work, but we need to understand the context, and maybe you can send us some input files you would be interested in converting.

Thanks,
Iulian

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
