*SYMMETRIC RESULTS TRANSFER
18.55 *SYMMETRIC RESULTSTRANSFER: Import resultsfrom an axisymmetric or partial
three-dimensional analysis.
This option is used to transfer a solution from an axisymmetric analy sis to a three-dimensional model or to
transfer the solution of a partial three-dimensional model to a full three-dimensionalm odel. It can be used
only in conjunction with the *SYMMETRIC MODEL GENERATION option.
Product: ABAQUS/Standard
Type: Model data
Level: This option is not supported in a model defined in terms of an assembly of part i nstances.

Optional parameters:
STEP
Set this parameter equal to thestep number on the restart file at which the results must be obtained.
If this parameter is omitted, the results will be obtained at the last available st ep found on the restart
file.
INC
Set this parameter equal to the increment number on the restart file at which the results must be
obtained. If this parameter is omitted, the results will be obtained at theend of the step specified by
the STEP parameter.
ITERATION
This parameter is relevant only ifthe solution is transferred from a previous direct cyclic analysis.
Set this parameter equal to the iterationnumber on the restart file at which the results must be
obtained. Since restart information can be written only at the end of an iteration in a direct cyclic
analysis, the INC parameter is irrelevantand is ignored if the ITERATION parameter is specified.
If this parameter is omitted, the results will be obtainedat the end of the step specified by the
STEP parameter.
UNBALANCED STRESS
Set UNBALANCED STRESS=STEP (default) if the stress unbalanceis to be resolved in the first
increment.
