hello
hello how to mesh this spring with HyperMesh : http://cjoint.com/?DHvoHhP89OF thanks
Hello
there are 3 ways:
1) shift+F12 > automesh a tip surface of spring
3d>line drag>drag elems> drag the tip elems along helix line
=> you get 3d model
2) geom>lines>between> make mid line between 2 helix lines
1d>line mesh> mesh the mid line
=> you get 1d model
3) 1d>spring> create spring elem connects top and bottom of spring
=> you get 0d model
thanks
