Hypermesh duplicating and rename components (Dyna)

I need to generate about 400 duplicated Dyna componets and increment their Part names as well. Is this possible? Maybe as a TCP script?

Once I have these new componets (SID & MAT are common) I can then move/create a single beam element into each of them.

Many thanks.

Do you want duplicate also for component contents (mesh) ? Or juste component definition?

Hi,

Yes, ofcourse it is possible. But you should move beam into each part at same time of creation

like this:

*createmarkpanel elems 1 "Select beams:"

foreach BeamId [hm_getmark elems 1] {

set PartName [hm_getincrementalname comps part]

*collectorcreateonly comps $PartName "" [expr round(rand()*63)+1]

*createmark elems 1 $BeamId

*movemark elems 1 $PartName

}

*clearmark elems 1

Hello Tinh,

i would like to clear all the duplicate component entities by moving all the respective elements to the original component. is it possible? @tinh
