abaqus-step

abaqus-step is a skill for Claude Code from Cai-aa/CAE-Agent-Hub. It costs 40 tokens per session (1,166 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for choosing and defining the steps of an Abaqus engineering simulation. An analysis step specifies what the simulation calculates, such as stresses, motion, vibration, heat transfer, or buckling.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set up static, dynamic, frequency, heat-transfer, transient, buckling, modal, impact, crash, or multi-step analyses and choose related time and deformation settings.
Why use it?
It helps match the simulation setup to the physical problem and manage issues such as time increments, large deformation, convergence, and sequential loading.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

abaqus-step scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Abaqus Step Skill

This skill defines analysis steps and procedures in Abaqus. Steps control what physics are solved and how the solution proceeds.

When to Use This Skill

Route here when user mentions:

  • "static analysis", "dynamic step", "frequency analysis"
  • "heat transfer step", "thermal step", "transient analysis"
  • "analysis type", "time increments", "nlgeom"
  • "convergence issues", "increment size", "time step"
  • "multi-step analysis", "sequential loading"
  • "buckling analysis", "modal analysis"
  • "impact simulation", "crash analysis"

Route elsewhere:

  • Applying boundary conditions → /abaqus-bc
  • Applying loads → /abaqus-load
  • Setting up optimization → /abaqus-optimization
  • Configuring output requests → /abaqus-output

Workflow: Creating Analysis Steps

Step 1: Understand User's Physics

Ask if unclear:

  • What physics? Stress, vibration, heat transfer, coupled?
  • Static or dynamic? Constant load vs time-varying?
  • Linear or nonlinear? Small or large deformations?

Step 2: Choose Step Type

Analysis Goal Step Type Key Parameter
Stress under constant load StaticStep nlgeom=OFF/ON
Natural frequencies FrequencyStep numEigen
Buckling modes BuckleStep numEigen
Transient dynamics (smooth) ImplicitDynamicsStep timePeriod
Impact/crash ExplicitDynamicsStep timePeriod
Heat conduction HeatTransferStep response
Thermal + structural CoupledTempDisplacementStep timePeriod
Harmonic response SteadyStateDynamicsStep frequencyRange

Most common: StaticStep with nlgeom=OFF for linear stress analysis.

Step 3: Determine Linearity

Condition nlgeom Setting When
Small deformation, linear material OFF Default, fastest
Large rotation/displacement ON Thin structures, cables
Plasticity ON Material yields
Contact ON Parts touching
Buckling ON Post-buckling behavior

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

abaqus-step is a skill published in the GitHub repository Cai-aa/CAE-Agent-Hub (868 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 1,166 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
