Hi 

I need your help again. I have been struggling for a long time to do field mapping from external temperature field ( cloud point with format of XYZ T) to Abaqus. If I do it in CAE, the CAE will freeze for a long time. So I made a Python script. The remaining issue is mapping time is really long for my big 3D model with 30k nodes, for example, 20 minutes for one step mapping. I have 100+ steps, so it will take me almost 2 days to do mapping before creating an inp file. To reduce the mapping time, I have already divided the mapping zone into 4-8 layers. I am posting my script here to see if there is something you might notice to reduce mapping time. The logic is: loop over each step to create mapping field, then loop over each step again to apply mapped field to the region as predefined BC field. If this question is inappropriate, please let me know so I can delete it. Or if there is another method I could use, I would love to try that. I would appreciate it for your time. Thank you!
