Ex2Ab is a utility for converting Exodus II mesh files into the Abaqus inp format. <br />
The utility will also generate a skeletal MCNP input file.
## Requirements:
* `Exodus II Mesh` with defined blocks (element sets) for each material region.
* `Python netCDF4 module` <br />
See http://unidata.github.io/netcdf4-python/#netCDF4.Group for installation instructions.
* All required other Python dependencies are common packages.
## Included Files:
* `Ex2Ab.py` - the main program file.
* `Ex2Ab_modules.py` - file with functions for the main program file.
## To Run with GUI:
1. Enter `python Ex2AB.py` into the command line.
* From the directory containing `Ex2AB.py`.
2. Choose your `Exodus II Mesh` using the GUI.
3. Click `Done` on the GUI.
4. Let Ex2Ab run and check the terminal for prompts.
* The outputs will be written to your current working directory.
## To Run without GUI:
1. Enter `python Ex2AB.py mesh.exo` into the command line.
* `mesh.exo` is your `Exodus II Mesh`.
2. Let Ex2Ab run and check the terminal for prompts.
* The outputs will be written to your current working directory.
## Optionally Defined Mesh Features:
* `Node sets` on model surfaces that are intended to be reflecting boundaries.
* `Attribute1` field on each block - this is treated as the density of the block.
