how can numpy be used within abaqus python in a linux operating system?

Submitted by andiM on

Hello, 

I would like to ask if anyone knows how to use numpy within abaqus python, on a linux operating system. I would be grateful for any suggestions.

Actually I figured it out last month.

 

If you look closely, you will find that the python interpreter ported with Abaqus is 64-bit. So you will need a numpy version that is 64-bit. Fortunately, there is an unofficial 64-bit numpy version  http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs

 Here is what I did:

1. Installed 64-bit python.

2. Installed 64-bit numpy.

3. Then in the code, added these three lines:

import sys

sys.path.append("your\numpy64-bit\path")

import numpy

 

Worked for me! 

Regards,

Samee

I donot know why but the website now only contain the Windows binaries setup files.

I also want to use Numpy with Abaqus in linux, but it still not work.

The error:
