How to un-merge nodes

Hello,

 

I have created a solid mesh with connectivity of nodes between two components.

 

Somehow I want to maintain connectivity at specific edges only and not the entire surface of the solid.

 

So how can I break this connectivity. ( I want the nodes of the two comp.s to be close as possible, but not equivalenced)

 

Regards,

Bharat

    Hi Bharat,

    Use the Detach panel (2D > Detach) to detach elements from the surrounding structure.  You can detach elements from a portion of your model so that it can be translated or moved, or you can offset the new nodes by a specified value. 

    Please go through the Detach Panel in Help Menu.
