I am meshing a disc sector for which I need to have identical mesh on the radial surfaces. How can I project the mesh on one side to the other? It seems I can just project along a vector in rectangular coordinates.
Correct. I need identical meshes on both sides so I can apply paired displacements at nodes.
I don't know of a good way to project this. You may be able to use morph but I think my approach would still be:
Duplicate elements
Rotate around center of disk (you probably know the angle from making the section)
Assign nodes to surface
Hope this helps.
Would rotating the mesh work?
No, it won't because there are holes in it.
Can you send a picture?
Replicate option?
The disc has an not symmetric hole in the middle, so I'd like identical mesh on both the side so I can apply symmetry BC.
Additonal note. I'm still working with version 14.
So you have a 2D mesh on the large side surface and you want it on the other side also to use to create a 3D mesh? Maybe include the mesh in the picture.
