Element connected to node A

given a node, it is possible to obtain the list of elements connected to this node through Matrix. i'll explain better. when using the “ Fastener setup” in Aerospace matrix, you can usually create a dove report that defines Bush IDs and elements connected to the end fi nodes ( 2D elements connected to RBE3 tramide). orw I would like to get something like this Matrix tranite once the cbush was created. data then a list of Cbush get a list of 2d elements connected at the end. Thank you

    I'm not aware of a way to do this in Matrix Browser and it might require some scripting if a editable list is desired. Two things came to my mind.

    Use the References Browser to see the nodes and the attached entities. (In the HyperWorks GUI)

    1. Select the CBUSH elements
    2. Swap your selection filter to nodes to get the nodes associated to those elements.
    3. Right click, References to get a list of each node and the attached elements.image
    4. To get the References list into an editable form, you might need to use scripting like here: https://community.altair.com/community?id=community_question&sys_id=25d708c81bffe490c4dfdbd9dc4bcba6

    Use scripting to get the adjacent elements and create your own list file. It would probably start along the lines of:

    *createmark elems 1 $elemID *createmark elems 2 "[hm_getmark elems 1]" *appendmark elems 1 "by adjacent"<br />set lst_adjacent_elems [hm_getmark elems 1]<br />puts $lst_adjacent_elems<br /><br /><br />
