The model that I am trying to stimulate shows the error 'Segmentation Rules have been violated (a triangle is inside a tetrahedron)'. Can you please tell what exactly is this error and how to remove it.

Thanks

    Hi Kartik

     

    The error tells you that some of the triangles and tetrahedra in the mesh of your model do not line up correctly.

     

    Which version of CADFEKO are you using? Did you create a union of touching parts? It could be that there are problems in the CAD model or that the model is incorrectly set up, but it's difficult to know without seeing the model.

     

    Kind regards
