如何从ABAQUS/Viewer打印3D PDF？

Question

我正在寻找从结果ABAQUS/Viewer打印3D PDF的方法。这样可以很容易地将结果与其他对仿真结果感兴趣但无法访问ABAQUS的人员交流。

最好的方法是导出一个vrml文件并使用Tetra4D或pdf3D和Adobe Acrobat专业版进行转换。 3D pdf可以看起来非常好。但是，商业软件每年的费用超过800英镑。我创建了一个Python脚本来直接从Abaqus/CAE & Viewer中创建一个3D PDF，它使用2个开源工具：1）Meshlab（http://www.meshlab.net/）创建U3D文件，2）MiKTeX（https://miktex.org/）将U3D文件转换为PDF格式。输出不像Tetra4D那样光亮，但它的工作原理。我没有用最新版本的Meshlab来试用。只需从Abaqus/CAE或Abaqus/Viewer运行该脚本即可。

# Abaqus CAE/Viewer Python Script to create a 3D pdf directly from Abaqus/CAE or Abaqus/Viewer. 
# You must first install meshlab (meshlabserver.exe)and MiKTeX (pdflatex.exe) 
# Edit this script to reflect the installed locations of meshlabserver.exe and pdflatex.exe 
# It will export a stl or obj file the mesh of current viewport and convert into 3D pdf 
# Or run in Abaqus/viewer and it will create a VRML file and convert to 3D pdf. 
# If contours are displayed in Abaqus Viewer, then it will create a contour 3D pdf

打印使用TECPLOT 360的Abaqus * .odb结果的最简单的方法这是阅读的Abaqus * .odb文件，你可以用任何决议案获得* .TIF和* .PNG结果，你可以还可以在3D中旋转模型并更改字体和所有您需要的东西。
