Hi,

I'm newbie, I was simulating the thermal transfer ( flux + convection ) follow it's tutorial. And I had a error:

'*** ERROR 14: Missing property #    1 referenced by  CQUAD4 # 1.
 *** ERROR 14: Missing property #    1 referenced by  CQUAD4 # 2.
 *** ERROR 14: Missing property #    1 referenced by  CQUAD4 # 3.'

I don't understand that so can anyone help me ? Thanks.

I used Tetra (Tetra mesh) element type and tried to redefining the property and material for components.

    You should assign the required property (it depends from your kind of analysis) to the component which contains CQUAD4 elements

    Hi Phat Vu

     

    I checked your file. This error is due to the presence of Quad4 shell elements in your model which has no defined property.

    Try deleting the quad4 elements using Delete > Elem > by config > quad4 and then run the analysis.

    The analysis has completed from my end.

    Thanks for your help. I forgot it when I transferred 3D mesh from old component to new one.
