Hi when I make I hexa mesh in a 3D form I make with the option 3D--solidmap---onevolumen--source type:quand and then mesh, like I saw in the tutorial but I think this is not the correct form to make it also because when I put on a propietie and I analyses said that there is missing propieties.

Thank you for the Helps!

    Hi,

    could you please explain in more detail how you 'put on a propertie'? On elements or on components?

    Yes I can I put the propieties first I create a propiety, selecting the Material and the propity in this case PSOLID, then I go to collectors-- assign---Component_propity then I select the comp and the propiety that I have already created before and press asign.

    That approach sounds correct. For finding the exact reason for your error messages I suggest that you contact your local support representative and provide them the .hm-file together with information on HM-version und HM-updated used.

    The error is allways like this one:

    .......

    ERROR: CQUAD4 element number 31 references

    a missing or invalid property number 1.

    ERROR: CQUAD4 element number 32 references

    a missing or invalid property number 1.

    ERROR: CQUAD4 element number 33 references

    a missing or invalid property number 1.

    ERROR: CQUAD4 element number 34 references

    a missing or invalid property number 1.

    ERROR: CQUAD4 element number 35 references

    a missing or invalid property number 1.

    ERROR: CTRIA3 element number 29 references

    a missing or invalid property number 1.

    ERROR # 14 FROM SUBROUTINE renum

    35 errors found in the input data.

    ***** FATAL INPUT DATA ERROR *****

    ***** FATAL ERROR ENCOUNTERED *****

    And I don't really underestand why it said that I didn't put on the propieties or are missing...

    Thank you for your helps

    Hi Juanlu,

    You are shell and solid elements in the component. You assigned a solid property (PSOLID) to this component.

    Please, delete shell elements in the component and the error message should be disappeared.
