Abaqus FEA is a software suite for finite element analysis and computer-aided engineering.

Using your own license

Abaqus is available on Compute Canada clusters, but you must provide your own license. Configure your license by creating in your account a file named $HOME/.licenses/abaqus.lic containing the single line prepend_path("LM_LICENSE_FILE","port@server", ";").
The license server on your end will have to be reachable by our compute nodes and your firewall will need to be configured appropriately. This usually requires our technical team to get in touch with the technical people managing your license software. Please contact our technical support and we will provide a list of IP addresses used by our clusters and obtain the information we need on the port and IP address of your server.

Submission script

Below is an example submission script for a small Abaqus Explicit job running on four cores:
