This paper presents the findings from the collaborative research project between Nanyang
Technological University and Singapore Institute of Manufacturing Technology which aims to explore the
integration and interoperability between structural design and architectural design applications based on IFC
standards and product model.
In this series of tutorials
you will become familiar with the process of creating ABAQUS
models interactively using ABAQUS/CAE. Three problems will be considered: (1)
steady-state heat conduction in a trapezoidal plate, (2) bending of a short cantilever beam,
and (3) the elasticity problem of a plate with a hole subjected to uniform far-field tension
This tutorial aims to lead beginners into the world of Patran by creating an FE model from
scratch. Simple as it is, the tutorial covers almost all essential steps to build FE models for
tubular joints and provides useful information that I obtained through three years of practice.

For each interface region you must specify the physical quantities that are to be exchanged with the
third-party code. Refer to the ABAQUS online manual for the list of the physical quantities that can be
exchanged during a co-simulation and provides the quantity identifier and a description of the quantity.
