This Abaqus DLOAD simulation is the perfect starting point if you’re new to user subroutines. Built specifically for beginners, it shows how to apply custom distributed loads — like sinusoidal or spatially varying pressure — using the DLOAD subroutine written in Fortran.
Originally created in Abaqus 2024 and fully converted to Abaqus 6.14-2, the package includes all required files: the .cae models, a clean .inp file, and a fully working Fortran code. Everything is ready-to-run, and the setup matches exactly what’s shown in the popular YouTube tutorial DLOAD Subroutine for Beginners — What I Wish I Knew Sooner.
Unlike other examples that skip over the important parts, this simulation walks you through every step — from defining the model and writing the DLOAD subroutine to compiling and validating the load distribution inside Abaqus.
