Help with abaqus restart analysis from a static analysis to a dynamics explicit

Submitted by bzhang12 on

Good morning,

Hope everyone is doing fine this weekend. I have a problem with abaqus stated in the title of this post and hope to find some wisdoms here.

Bascially, I would like to perform a dynamic explicit analysis from a static analysis and I set up the process in CAE as follows:

Step -> restart  requests -> frequency 1.

And it showsed that INP file the request was there "*Restart, write, overlay, frequency=1" and the message file also indciates that the information was written "restart information written in step 1 after increment 1".

Despite all that, the .res file was no where to be found in the folder.

Plese provide input if you encounter similar situations and found a solution.

Thank in advance,

Ben
