Macro for creating multiple Rod elements between two similar meshes
Altair EmployeeHow do I connect two similar meshed surfaces fully using Rod elements? The exisiting 1D->Rods panel is useful for creating one rod element between two nodes, but my meshed surfaces have more than 100 nodes on each, in which case it becomes very difficult to pick each pair of node to create each single rod element. Is there are a macro or utility in HM that will help me create rod elements between two matching meshed surfaces in one go itself?

Hi Sprash,
for matching meshes try...
1D->linear 1D
from: select your elements on side 1
to : select your elements on side 2
alignment: select matching nodes on side 1 and 2
element config: select rod
densitiy: what ever you need
