How to correct deformed elements during Connector generation

Altair Forum User

Hi,

I am having problem with adhesive connectors generation. where ever there is an edge, the elements are highly deformed. see the Picture below. Is there any way to correct These undeformed elements easily insted of editing each node. There are hundreds of connector elements, so correcting individual elements is not feasible.

Which version of Hypermesh you are using at your end?Also if possible share us same hm file to test this in other version.

I am using 14.0.110. Unfortuantely I cannot share the whole model. But i have made a simple model to show the problem. In the actual one the surfaces are not perfectly flat and the mesh on both the surfaces are different as the surfaces have complex shapes

I request you try this on latest version HW desktop 2017.0 or 2017.1.

Will it work? I am a University user and so don´t have Access to 2017 Version. If it works i will ask them to upgrade.

I cannot ensure but it has some resolved issues for connectors.You can request Hyperworks Student Edition 2017.0 from Altair online store.
