Summary of readability-oriented revisions to the Abaqus model scripts
for the dissertation data publication

Purpose
This note documents the editorial revisions that were applied to the model
scripts before data publication. The revised files were prepared to improve
readability, traceability and reusability of the code in the research-data
package.

Important clarification
The revised scripts were not intended as a new computational basis for the
generation of the dissertation results. They are publication-oriented,
readability-improved versions of the original model scripts.

Accordingly:
- no intentional methodological changes were introduced
- no intentional numerical changes were introduced
- no model assumptions were altered
- no parameter studies were redefined
- no evaluation logic was changed

The revisions serve documentation purposes only.

Use of ChatGPT
ChatGPT was used as an editorial assistance tool for the preparation of the
publication-oriented script versions. Its contribution was limited to the
improvement of readability, structure, file naming, explanatory headers and
general code traceability.

ChatGPT was not used to change the scientific content of the models.

Scope of the revisions
The following revised model scripts were generated:

- HSK_63_axi.py
- HSK_63_axi_anisotropic.py
- HSK_63_E_3D_180.py
- HSK_63_E_3D_180_anisotropic.py
- HSK_63_E_3D_complete.py
- HSK_63_E_3D_modal_WSPF.py

Source mapping
The revised files are based on the following original scripts:

- HSK_63_axi.py based on HSK63_axi_ohne_Spannband.py / HSK_63_axi_Kommentare_reduziert.py
- HSK_63_axi_anisotropic.py based on HSK63_axi_anisotropic_ohne_Spannband.py
- HSK_63_E_3D_180.py based on HSK63_E_3D_180_geometry.py
- HSK_63_E_3D_180_anisotropic.py based on HSK63_E_3D_180_geometry_aniso.py
- HSK_63_E_3D_complete.py based on HSK63_E_3D_komplett_geometry.py
- HSK_63_E_3D_modal_WSPF.py based on HSK63_E_3D_nur_WSPF_modal.py

Implemented revisions
The following types of revisions were applied consistently where possible:

1. Harmonized file naming
   Original file names were transferred into a more consistent naming scheme
   suitable for publication in a research-data repository.

2. Added descriptive file headers
   Each revised script received a short documentation header describing:
   - the script purpose
   - the model variant
   - the scope of the editorial cleanup
   - the explicit statement that numerical content was not intentionally changed

3. Improved provenance and publication clarity
   The revised files explicitly state that they are publication-oriented,
   readability-improved versions of the original model scripts.

4. Standardized math imports
   Explicit math imports were added where helpful for readability and
   transparency of used mathematical functions.

5. Preservation of original model bodies
   The underlying model-generation workflow, parameter definitions, modelling
   sequence, assembly logic, meshing logic, loading logic and job creation
   blocks were intentionally left unchanged in substance.

Boundary of the revision
The revision did not include:
- recalculation or regeneration of dissertation results
- correction of scientific assumptions
- restructuring of the FE methodology
- validation of alternative parameter values
- optimisation of computational performance
- refactoring aimed at changing model behaviour

Recommended citation note for repository documentation
The publication package contains readability-oriented revisions of the original
Abaqus model scripts. These revisions were prepared with editorial support from
ChatGPT and are intended solely to improve transparency, readability and
traceability. No intentional changes to the scientific model content were made.

Status
This text file documents the revision status of the model scripts at the time
of repository preparation.
