Hi Arun,

The program I made sits in the "contrib/mesh_conversion" directory. The
little readme file in the directory outlines its use, but if you run into
any difficulty, just let me know.

I made this program because I didn't have much success with editing the
python script myself, and got bored trying. I'm glad to hear that someone
had better luck than me! I know that the one thing that this python script
can't do is capture arbitrary boundary surfaces (i.e. if you select a few
faces of a surface to have one boundary id, and the rest to have another).
However ,writing out the mesh to an intermediate file does allow one to
capture this information.

A slight caveat is that cubit changed the way they write out Abaqus files in
version 12, and i haven't got around to updating the program to account for
this. So you'll have to use Cubit 11.1 or older to output the mesh file for
conversion. What I usually do is use v12 to edit the geometry and when I'm
happy with it, just open my saved geometry in v11 and output from there.

J-P
