Elements in proximity of nodes

Hi @NFMOREIRA

If the nodes are associated with the elements, there is option to find attached using TOOLS > FIND option in HyperMesh

However there is no direct option to find based on Tolerance. For this you may need to do customized scripting or automation.

Hi Pranav

Exactly. I use that  command for attached elements.
For this case however, I would need to do a script. The problem is that I do not know at the moment, how to transform the idea into the script.

Hi NFMOREIRA

You can learn the basics of scripting from the online tutorials available in HM help.

Hope these links may help you.

Hello,

 

When a list of nodes is imported to a meshed model, is there a way to find what elements are near each imported node, given a certain tolerance?

If so, how to select and export these elements?

 

Thanks for your help.

 

Regards,

Hi @NFMOREIRA

::hwat::utils::GetClosestElement x y z assemname

May be this is the command you are looking for, x y z are the coordinates of corresponding node.
