Hello

I just downloaded the academic version of the program.

I want to mesh a part with different mesh type than the already existed. For example i want to provided the locations of the nodes of the finite element,

Can hyperworks provide that possiblity?

 

Thank you in advance

    Hello guys, i have been trying to mesh several objects for the past few days.

     

     Everytime, it all goes correctly, even the meshing, loads, responses, and when i assign the properties it says 'elements assigned'.

     

     Now when i run the topology, it says job terminated at 'Element Quality Check - element xxxx invalid element type'.

     

     It does this almost everytime - no matter the component.

     

     I try remeshing, and activated the 'REMESH' from 'opticontrol', i auto clean the geometry before meshing - same outcome.

     

     When i try to clean mesh elements it says 'unable to create hmshell.

     

    Is there anyway i can bypass the element QI check?

     

    I always use Volume Tetramesh - PSOLID

     

    i can't fix all the broken elements manually.

     

    Please advise as this has been really delaying.

     

    Note: i have student edition so i cannot have more than 10,000 elements.
