Good morning to all,
I am an absolute neophyte of abaqus, software that I started using only as an input file generator to send to a code I wrote for finite element analysis.
Before now I have always used as a preprocession program the gid, but now for compatibility needs with colleagues I have to use abaqus.
for the first experiments I had to use simple geometries (prisms, cylinders, ...) composed of only one part: I designed the solid, defined the properties of the material, made the assembly, the steps, the mesh, the job and made the input write. Then I cleaned up the input file and read it to my code.
But now I have to implement a somewhat more complex geometry: a prism composed of two materials one on the other.
if I go to realize the geometry by building two parts and overlapping them when I go to generate the input file it does not create a unique numbering and continues for both parts but one for the first and one for the second:

I would instead like all the knots to appear in a single number like all the elements.
the choice of the material will then be made within my program: if the point is above a certain quota then it will be in a material vice versa in the other case.
what I care about is then succeeding in dividing my total prism into two parts (one associated with each material) in which the plane edge of separation is present. this, however, by generating an all consequent input file and not divided by parts.
If I could solve this issue, I could perform the analysis without making substantial changes to the code.
