Hello at all,

 

during a topology optimization of a wireframe of a student racecar the check before optimizing gives the following error:

 

A fatal error has been detected during input processing:

  *** ERROR # 6001 ***
  Two of the vectors defined on DTPL  card        1 are aligned.

 

I don´t know what to do now.

 

At the end of this text i add a dropbox link to my hm-file, so maybe someone of you can have a look and give me tipps to solve my prob.

 

I guess it could be the connection between the beams (1D) and the design space (solid). i equivalenced them with the equivalence function (in menu SHIFT+F3) in compliance with a small warpage. Maybe the local vectors of the beams are incorrect now.

I don´t have any idea.

 

 

I hope there is someone can help me.

 

greets,

 

Thomas

    Hi Rizo,

     

    You have defined the same node location for first and second  node in pattern grouping.

     

    Please choose another node for either first or second node.

    I was quite sure that i paid attention choosing the right nodes image/emoticons/default_sad.png' alt=':(' srcset='/emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x' width='20' height='20'>

     

     

    Thanks a lot,
