    Hi,
    the question is, how you can define loads and boundary conditions in a way, that Abaqus will understand this input.

    The easiest way to do this, is to use the Abaqus Step Manager, available in the Abaqus Standard 3D User Profile --> Tools --> Load Step Browser. The video below will explain, how to set up the step, the *Boundary and *DLOAD entries for Abaqus. Please be aware, that Boundaries and Loads will be only exported, if they are defined within an Abaqus *STEP. Please also note, that the Abaqus Input created by HyperMesh can be directly analyzed by the Abaqus Solver and does not need to be read in Abaqus Preprocessor.

    To see, in which panel an Abaqus keyword is supported in HyperWorks please see the help, as shown below.
