Public Description
ANSYS-VABS GUI is an open source code for VABS users to generate the VABS input files for user-defined composite beam sections. ANSYS-VABS GUI is a highly flexible tool for the VABS analysis of complex composite beam cross sections. It empowers the user with several approaches to modify and manipulate the cross-sectional design.
The main goals of developing this open source GUI code package are:
(1) To facilitate the generation of VABS input file in a user-friendly manner;
(2) To involve more ANSYS APDL users in the development of VABS GUI. For users' developments of the GUI, please visit the project website: https://cdmhub.org/projects/ansysvabsgui2015
(3) To serve as a foundation of ANSYS-SwiftCompTM GUI;
(4) To facilitate industrial use of VABS and also SwiftCompTM.

Dear Fang,
I cannot see the PreVABS in the Main Menu of ANSYS17.2 and 18.0. This is while in ANSYS 16.0 I could see it in the Main Menu. I followed all the instructions given in ANSYS-VABS interface document for installation. Does ANYS-VABS interface work for ANSYS 18 and 17? Do you have any suggestion?
Thank you,

For ANSYS 19.1 and maybe others, adding the version number (XXX) to menulistXXX.ans does not work. The file needs to be named menulist.ans only.
