MAT100 (Hexa) Connectors

Altair Forum User

Hello all,

 

i have a question about the realization procedure of MAT100(Hexa) Connectors for LS-DYNA IF in HM.

 

The default procedure is:

- Element is created

- Comp-ID is created for elements of each individual pair

- MAT-ID is created for elements of each individual pair

- SECTION-ID is created for elements of each individual pair 

- Tied-Contact is created for all created elements along with corresponding sets

 

How can i change that behaviour, so that HM only operates the first step and places the Elements in the current collector? Current workaround is to move all the elements to the desired collector and afterwards delete lots of entities.. /emoticons/default_unsure.png' alt=':unsure:'>

Hello

if you want to customize your own spotweld, edit hm/bin/feconfig.cfg

in your case, add below spotweld config (called 'MyHexaSpotweld'):

 

CFG dyna 1000 MyHexaSpotweld

*filter spot

*head

*body 0

hex8 1 1

 

choose this config will create hexa in current comp and no additional data (link,prop,mat,contact)..
