5.4 Exporting models in OBJ format

Product: Abaqus/CAE  

Benefits: Wavefront OBJ is an open file format for geometry definition and visualization that is supported by many three-dimensional graphics applications. You can now export geometry and mesh data from an Abaqus/CAE model database to OBJ format, which enables you to display your Abaqus/CAE data in a variety of CAD and visualization programs.

Description: Abaqus/CAE now supports export of model data in OBJ format. When you export data from the Visualization module, Abaqus/CAE exports only mesh data to the OBJ-format file. If you export data from any other module, Abaqus/CAE exports mesh data if the mesh is displayed in the current viewport; otherwise, geometry data are exported.

Export of data from the Visualization module is also sensitive to the current step and frame. If you display an undeformed plot in the viewport, Abaqus/CAE exports undeformed data to the OBJ-format file; if you display a deformed plot, Abaqus/CAE exports deformed data for the current step and frame to the OBJ-format file.
