Hello there,

 

I have completed meshing a fairly complex geometry in Hypermesh with dimensions in millimeters (mm). But now I want the geometry and the mesh to be in meters (m) to carry out my analysis in Abaqus. Is there a possible way to change the dimensions of the model ? Please help !!

    Hi

    Use panel Tools>scale to scale all comps up to 1000x

     

    But remember that you don't need it, just understand result values

    Thank you answering my question. I have one more doubt. I have created element sets in Hypermesh but those are not visible when I import the mesh in Abaqus. Is it possible to get those element sets in Abaqus ?
