I have recently imported a model into HyperMesh that already has a mesh applied to it. However, for my presentation, I would like to remove the existing mesh so that I can remesh the model from scratch. Could you guide me through the process of deleting the current mesh and setting up a new mesh for my presentation

    You can select all element and press the Delete key, or use a right mouse button click to select Delete within the context menu.

    A new mesh can be created by 2D / Freeform.
    Here you can select surfaces, if they exist in your model, or select the existing elements, to create a new mesh:

    Hi @NguyenDuy,

    in case your geometry is not available anymore in the model, you could also try using Synera - a low-code software to automate HyperMesh or OptiStruct e.g. for automating the pre-processing with geometric rule-based boundary conditions. There are also re-meshing and mesh-to-solid possibilities available.

    The software is part of the Altair Partner Alliance, so you can easily download it and give it a try: https://altair.com/synera

    It could look like this, based on a simple surface as example or importing an OptiStruct model.

    Here you can find a brief overview how the software works:
