Hello all !

 

I'm a new user of HyperMesh so sorry if I don't have huge knowledges in.

 

First, let me explain the context.

I'm trying to create RVE with inclusions. It's composed of matrix and inclusions in the matrix.

 

First, I create a RVE cube (the matrix), then i create inclusions (here, spheres).

The next steps consists in to clear the matrix from the inclusions and to cut inclusions going out of the matrix.

I'm must keep two different components in order to give them different material properties.

 

I use *boolean_merge_solids to cut solids.

But when I cut my matrix with to many inclusions, there is inclusions added to the matrix.

And similar things when in try to cut my inclusions....

 

If i do it one inclusion by one inclusion, the code become heavy and too mush complex.

 

Is there any reasons for making my boolean_merge_solids going wrong ? Or maybe, something to be carefull with this function ?

 

Thanks in advance

 

PS: sorry if I do some language faults, i'm french speaker and i'm not fluent in english...
