Simple beam-Trial performed just to mesh one face prior to meshing an entire assembly ; ;Beam appears to have surface and solid properties Reviewed all tutorials still have issue- any assistance appreciated

    Please keep in mind parasolid files are in meters. Make sure you are using an appropriate mesh size for that part size or scale the part itself

    Thanks for the reply  next issue  

    Able to mesh and add constraints and loads ( trial and error method )see attached   A fem file is generated ; If' stress , displacements and contours resulted ;  I can find no report out  visual (graphic)or tabular indication  (using the ribbon task )of any results  like I can in Inspire

    I'm doing sometime wrong or for Hyperworks student edition is that a limitation 

    I'm lost 

    Where \ how can I get  CAE readout on the model   Sorry I know the model is not pretty  just using it as a test model ( Cad -On shape )

    Are you looking for how to contour/query results?

    You can use Hyperview or HMPOST (Post ribbon directly in Hypermesh)

    You may want to take a look at some intro trainings
