how to add fillet to curved shell surface

hello.

I am using Hypermesh and analyzing the stress analysis near the pad plate on the cylindrical shell plate.

Please tell me how to add fillet to curved surface (fillet between pad plate and shell plate) so that the singularity does not appear in the stress analysis.

I tried Surface>Fillet but any fillet does not created.

or If you know other way to disappear the singularity, could you please tell me how to.

Thank you.

Could you share us screenshot of that location where you need fillet?

Dear Mr rahul,

Thank you for your response.

Please find attached screenshot.

The yellow surface is cylindrical shell plate.

The blue surface is pad plate.

The pad plate is rounded along the shell plate and connected to the shell with 90 degree.

The singularity was found at the intersection of the two plate.

Thank you so much for your help.

At geometry level you can try with line edit : Fillet option. or Surface : fillet.

Try Hypermorph option with domains & handle concept.If possible share hm file for same location.

Dear Mr rahul,

Thank you for your kind help.

I sent the hm file at your dropbox. please find those file.

Because of geometrical complexity auto option will not work.I tried creating arc but that also didn't work.Why dont you try this in CAD software.Hypermorph would be good for increasing or decreasing fillet radius.
