    Introduction to Abaqus/Standard and Abaqus/Explicit

    This introductory course introduces you to the analysis capabilities of Abaqus using the Abaqus keywords interface. It is the ideal way for those who will primarily use third-party preprocessors to obtain a working knowledge of both Abaqus/Standard and Abaqus/Explicit to solve linear and nonlinear problems. The following products are covered: Abaqus/Standard, Abaqus/Explicit and Abaqus/Viewer. If interested in the interactive interface of Abaqus, consider the Introduction to Abaqus course instead.
