Hello All..… the avid users of Abaqus Scripting Interface have probably pondered at some point if there is anyway to get hold of the region objects associated with the feature objects. Let me share some methods that can come in handy. The following methods are applicable to both the part and the assembly objects: getFeatureEdges(), getFeatureCells(), getFeatureFaces() and getFeatureVertices(). All these methods require the feature name as an argument. The methods are not documented yet.

The users who are new to the Abaqus Scripting interface must check out the Abaqus Scripting User’s Manual for the cool examples that demonstrate its usage!
