Dear Dr Ahmed,

Thank you for everything that you are doing.

I tried to download CDP Model Input Generator, but when I'm trying to open it I get this comment: Conversion to logical from string is not possible. Error in => ABAQUS_CDP_Generator.mlapp at line 958

Hi sir,

Can you check please the ABAQUS_Steel_Installer.exe file, since it has been packaged with Matlab 2024a (which is still pre-release and not stable) it gives an error when installing?
Can you package it with Matlab 2023b if possible, also? Thanks, and regards.

First of all, thank you very much for this effort..Doctor, I have a question about the program. The window appears and starts downloading, but the installation window does not open. Do I need MATLAB to run it? The language is English, and I logged in to github, but to no avail.

hello sir
when I generate the material data I receive an error :

Error Identifier: MATLAB:ui:NumericEditField:invalidValue
Error Message: 'Value' must be a double scalar within the range of 'Limits'.

Error Location:

Line 185 in AbstractNumericComponent.set.Value
Line 184 in ABAQUS_CDP_Generator.Write_CDP_data_files
Line 349 in ABAQUS_CDP_Generator.GenerateMaterialButtonPushed

Hello, I have been using this tool the last couple of months for some reinforced concrete simulations that involve CDP parameters and it just makes the workflow so much easier. Thank you for all the work!

I was just wondering if it would be possible to publish the source code, as that could help also not only incorporating other models, but also allowing forks that run on other programing languages (E.g. Python). Thanks again.

Error:
Call to download server failed (HTTP) error code:404). Try to return the installer.
if that failds, check your internet conncection, firewall, proxy server or virus scanner settings.

Attempting to run the installer for steel installer on windows 11 results in an error message that application install was not successful.

The problem is that i have the student version of abaqus, so it says to me that i cant submit the job because this version of abaqus is limited to 1000 nodes. Its why i asked you the.odb files. Sorry for reopening the issue.

Dear Mr. Ahmed Elkady,

I hope this email finds you well. I am currently preparing for engineering school entrance exams. I recently came across your impressive work on modeling a steel end-plate bolted connection in Abaqus.

I have a keen interest in structural analysis, and your project aligns perfectly with my area of focus. In order to enhance my understanding and gain insights from your expertise, I was wondering if you would be willing to provide me with the job and visualization files related to your modeling work.

I am particularly interested in using the student version of Abaqus to explore and analyze the results as part of my project. Having access to your files would greatly assist me in studying the intricacies of this specific type of connection and help me prepare effectively for the engineering school entrance exams.

I fully understand the value of your work and the effort you have put into it, and I assure you that the files will be used solely for educational purposes and will not be shared with any other individuals or entities. I highly respect your intellectual property rights and will comply with any conditions or limitations you may have regarding the usage of the files.

I genuinely appreciate any assistance you can provide, and I believe that learning from experienced professionals like you will greatly contribute to my knowledge and future career prospects. I look forward to your positive response.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Best regards,

Hello, I'm trying to use a generator to process the test data I have. However, I found that when I inserted the test data, the generator didn't respond at all, nor did I get an error or anything. But I found that it does work when I select the example you uploaded. Can I ask what's going on here? Is it because my file size (4.6MB) is larger than the sample file (17KB)?

dear dr. Ahmed
thanks for your help and your useful tool and your great helpful youtube videos
I had an issue with cdp generator when I changed the fcu number and tried to generate material the file named data compression damage contains 0,0 only and when I clicked after generation the attached photo shows the problem

Hi,
I downloaded the latest "ABAQUS_Steel_Installer", but after installing it says "This tool version has expired! Please check GitHub for new release.", see attached.

After clicking ok on the first window I have a second window pop up saying "Invalid or deleted object. Error in => ABAQUS_Steek_Generator.mlapp at line 986".

Any suggestions on what might be wrong?
Thanks.

Can not be used due to version expired, but the software which I download from here is the newest one.
