Computational Engineering International

CEI develops the EnSight post-processing and visualization software for Abaqus and other CAE simulation tools. Over 500 companies including GE, Honda, NASA, and ExxonMobil use EnSight for their post-processing needs. 

EnSight directly reads the .ODB and older .FIL files from Abaqus.  It can visualize and post-process up to 32 Abaqus models at the same time.  It can also visualize and post-process Abaqus models and other CAE solver models for comparison sake, or for coupled CFD-Abaqus models, or for other multi-physics applications.  In addition, EnSight can export out 3D models in several 3D formats that can be embedded in PowerPoint, Word and other applications to support reports and collaboration.  Some of those viewer tools are free.  Finally, EnSight can do all this in batch, so that your post-processing can be completely automated.  If you like you can extend EnSight capabilities using the included Python scripting and object API.
