The Abaqus Welding Interface (AWI) streamlines the generation of two and three-dimensional welding simulations from within Abaqus/CAE. This application provides a model-tree based approach to defining all aspects of the weld model such as weld beads, weld passes, film loads, radiation

Once you have downloaded the .zip file of the Abaqus Welding Interface from the DS FTP Site, then unzip the saved file and copy the resulting folder into the abaqus_plugins folder of your Abaqus installation. See the install Instructions.txt file included in the zip file for more detailed installation instructions.

Two MOV video files are available for download. The demos cover all the steps required to generate 2D and 3D weld models. The demos each last 30-40 minutes.
