Introduction

An engineering modeling tool installed for Amir Shojaei at S3DF (documentation here)

Quick Start

ssh s3dflogin (or use
ssh psana
export PATH=/sdf/group/lcls/eng/abaqus/commands:${PATH}
to get example: abq2022hf5 fetch -j c2 (fetches c2.inp from local examples)
for very quick test of functionality run interactively:
- export ABA_BATCH_OVERRIDE=1 (we think we have to also "unset ABA_BATCH_OVERRIDE") when we are done with interactive mode
- abq2022hf5 -j c2 -cpus 8 -inter
for production run in the slurm batch queue that has been allocated to LCLS:
- abq2022hf5 -j c2 -cpus 8 -queue=milano (can also add "-verbose 2" for more output
help for submitting to slurm is in /sdf/group/lcls/eng/abaqus/2022/linux_a64/SMA/site/instructions.txt
