Transferring results between Abaqus/Explicit and Abaqus/Standard

Abaqus provides the capability to import a deformed mesh and its associated material state from Abaqus/Standard into Abaqus/Explicit and vice versa. In addition, new model information can be specified during the import analysis. This capability is useful for problems that involve several analysis stages. For example, in manufacturing processes the preloading can be analyzed using Abaqus/Standard and the subsequent forming operation can be simulated using Abaqus/Explicit. Finally, the springback of the material can be performed in Abaqus/Standard.

For this capability to work, the same release of Abaqus/Explicit and Abaqus/Standard must be run on computers that are binary compatible.
