Assembly

Features in Abaqus/CAE include Parts, Datums, Partitions, and Assembly operations. Assembly commands create Feature objects on only the rootAssembly object. The commands that create Feature objects on only the Part object are described in Part commands. The commands that create Feature objects on both the Part and the rootAssembly objects are described in Feature commands.

UNSUPPORTED_DENSITY: For some regions, either a negative material density or a temperature dependent density has been specified, or the material value is missing for one or more plies in the composite section. SHELL_OFFSETS: For shells, this method does not account for any offsets specified. MISSING_SECTION_DEFINITION: For some regions, the section definition is missing. UNSUPPORTED_SECTION_DEFINITION: The section definition provided for some regions is not supported. REINFORCEMENTS: This method does not account for any reinforcements specified on the model. SMEARED_PROPERTIES: For regions with composite section assignments, the density is smeared across the thickness. The volume centroid and center of mass computations for a composite shell use a lumped mass approach where the volume and mass is assumed to be lumped in the plane of the shell. As a result of these approximations the volume centroid, center of mass and moments of inertia may be slightly inaccurate for regions with composite section assignments. UNSUPPORTED_NON_STRUCTURAL_MASS_ENTITIES: This method does not account for any non-structural mass on wires. INCORRECT_MOMENT_OF_INERTIA: For geometry regions with non-structural mass per volume, the non-structural mass is assumed to be a point mass at the centroid of the regions. Thus, the moments of inertia may be inaccurate as the distribution of the non-structural mass is not accounted for. Use the mesh for accurately computing the moments of inertia. MISSING_BEAM_ORIENTATIONS: For some regions with beam section assignments, the beam section orientations are missing. UNSUPPORTED_BEAM_PROFILES: This method supports the Box, Pipe, Circular, Rectangular, Hexagonal, Trapezoidal, I, L, T, Arbitrary, and Tapered beam profiles. Any other beam profile is not supported. TAPERED_BEAM_MI: Moment of inertia calculations for tapered beams are not accurate. SUBSTRUCTURE_INCORRECT_PROPERTIES: The user assigned density and thickness is not considered for substructures.

A Part object specifying which Part will be instanced in place of the original Part.

applyConstraints=True

A Boolean specifying whether to apply existing constraints on the new instance or to position the new instance in the same place as the original instance. The default value is True. A value of False indicates that constraints applies to the instance are deleted will be deleted from the feature list.
