Hi, I have model from ansys classic, works on, when I make cdb file to edit it in hypermesh all is ok. I import file from cdb, to hypermesh, and when i want to export it to second cdb file the message appears that there are vaild elements (only contact elements), do i want to save them. After that when I import file to ansys it doesnt work. In component table all element type seems to be correct. Do you know how to fix it?

    When you say '... I import file to ansys it doesnt work', it's better to show us error message to better understand your issue.

    Hi,

     

    Make sure you are in Ansys user profile when you import the Ansys file in HyperMesh.
