This section describes the restart capability in
Abaqus/CAE.
If your model contains multiple steps, you do not have to analyze
all of the steps in a single analysis job. Indeed, it is often desirable to run
a complex analysis in stages. This allows you to examine the results and
confirm that the analysis is performing as expected before continuing with the
next stage. The restart files generated by an
Abaqus
analysis allow you to continue the analysis from a specified step. For more
information, see
Restarting an analysis.
