Hi , I have been doing a structural analysis where i had to mesh more than 35 components in hyper mesh. However i am yet to define contacts in abaqus for which i have to take this assembly in to abaqus but i am not able to import the inp file in to abaqus as an orphanmesh. Everything is coming as one part. But if i try to import each part as a different model i am able to get separate separate models by which i am able to copy all instances as one assembly (this is what i wanted) but when i do this i am not able to define material properties since all i have is instances but no parts, Please someone help me out with this problem
