Lattice Sizing Opt

I've been doing my own lattice designs, as well as the baseline problem. I feel like my sizing optimization is not working. The picture below is the final .fem from the example and the members appear 1D. It definitely does not match the example in appearance.  Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

    Hi Dave,

     

    Have you changed the mesh?

     

    Lattice cell size is related to mesh size.

    No I haven't, I did the problem exactly like the example. Therefore, I assume its something I have set in Hyperworks.

    Dave,

     

    is it possible to share the model?

    Prakash,

    I figured it out - I just had the element representation set incorrectly.

     

    Thanks
