Management of dimensions

Hello everyone,

I have a question regarding the management of units of measurement and dimensions of a FEM model in HyperMesh. Specifically, I am working on a .hm file of the NASA Common Research Model (CRM). Currently, the chord length is about 304 units, and I want to resize the model so that this length corresponds to, for example, 1 unit, automatically scaling all other dimensions accordingly.

My question is: is it possible to perform this operation automatically? If so, how can I proceed?

Thank you very much for your help!

    Hi Francesco,

    If you are looking for scaling down the dimension, then go for "scale" option available in Hypermesh.

    See the below image. For your case you need to hit the - sign as you are scaling down.
