      Fixing compatibility issues between ABAQUS and ZEISS Correlate

      Converting a .odb created using an Abaqus export script errored out and prompts for a file upgrade which can take hours

       
      Below is a suggested output script for ABAQUS
      # Usage:
      # ------
      # - Command line:
      #   abaqus python odb2gomxml.py
      #
      # - ABAQUS/CAE:
      #   Make sure the path-variable in this script (l. 45) is set right.
      #   File -> Run Script -> Select this script in the Run Script dialog box
      #
      # Requirements:
      # -------------
      # - The *.odb-file must contain the node displacements.
      # - Refer to the Abaqus Analysis User's Manual Vol.1
      #   4.1.3 Output to the output database
      # - Enable it in the *.inp-file by:
      #   *OUTPUT,FIELD
      #   *NODE OUTPUT
      #   U
      #
      # - or enable it in ABAQUS/CAE by:
      #   Step module: field output request editor
