Creating a Solid
Altair EmployeeHi,
I am having problems in creating a solid in my geometry. Below I have attached my geometry. At each holes I need to make a separate solid, which will be my non-design part. I have done that by selecting the nodes tab in GEOM. After clicking the nodes tab I clicked 'on geometry' option and after that from the drop down menu I selected 'lines'. Once that was done I selected the distance tab and from there I selected the 'three nodes' option. After that I selected the lines tab and chose 'Circle Centre and Radius' from there I selected 'Nodes by list' and chose my axis in which I wanted to make the radius and created it. Then I choose the surfaces tab and selected 'Drag along Vector' and again I chose the axis and the distance that I wanted to drag it. Lastly I chose the selected solid edit tab and chose 'Trim with plane/surf' from there i selected with surfs: and from the drop down menu I chose solids and then the other option I chose surfs and then trimmed it. The second and third picture will explain everything I have mentioned above.
Now I am doing the same on the top part of my geometry this can be seen in the 4th picture I have uploaded. The top part where the holes are, is curved. When I do the same process that I have mentioned above. I get a 'RED' color surrounding my hole instead of yellow. I know the reason is because the hole is sticking out of the main geometry and is not flat with the geometry. But how do I fix this?

Hi,
Instead Create a circle using plane (N1, N2, N3) as the surface is inclined and drag the same from top to bottom. Try this and let us know if this is helpful at all.

Hi Prakash,
Thank you for getting back to me. Actually I tried a different way and that worked.
