I have simple hexa weld between two Components (up and down). To use it in Nastran profile, instead of creating acm shell gap weld, I am creating RBE3 from each node of hexa to respective FEs. Please help me to create a macro for this.

Please note that there are no. of hexas between different FEs in a given file.  Please help me to create a macro for this.

Why need macro when you can do that within 5' ?

Jouher_20929

I have over 35 welds

Only 15' for 35 welds:

-create nodes at center of hexas 5'

-delete hexas

-create connectors at the nodes 5'

-REALIZE and check 5'

If you make macro, it costs you a week!

Dont do everything by writing macro!

Q.Nguyen-Dai

Yes, I agree with @tinh
