Tips, Tricks, and Inquiries: Creating Nodal Connections between 2D and 3D Meshes

cfree

In this Tips, Tricks, and Inquiries demo we explore a couple ways to make connections between meshes in HyperWorks 2022.1.

 

In this video we will:

• Learn how to connect adjacent 2D meshes using the Equivalence, Associate, and Imprint tools.
• Use the Boolean tool to combine solid geometry
• Apply the imprint tool to 3D meshes

In this video we will:

• Learn the basics of FE Geometry
• See how the Patch tool can be used to fill gaps between 2D meshes
• Expand on the Patch workflow to create solid meshes that are connected without using contact or connectors
