Hi Thomas and Blas,
Thank you for your inputs.
@Thomas the bit that I show in the figures is just the top of this panel plus I have deleted the panel behind it. If you try revolving the mesh around to (0 0 0) to (1 0 0) vector by 90 degree with 30 elements around the sweep length you should...
Thanks for your input. Your workaround doesn't work as I am generating the geometry in FEMAP anyway and am only importing some points as a csv file. The geometry is all in metres from the start.
It seems to be definitely related to the dimensions as if I delete the farfield surface and all...
It is also interesting that I exported just the mesh as a Nastran bdf, reimported it and did the same rotation and it still produces the same error.
I'm not sure if it is a scaling issue as the total model is 30m but the smallest element is 1mm.
Yes I am using the Mesh -> Revolve -> Element command.
It is very strange as if I only export the region where I am having the issues as a .neu file and then read it in, the revolve works but if I export the whole model it doesn't. When I run the revolve command is says "Node 0 Does Not Exist"...
I have been trying to create a body of revolution in FEMAP but I am having issues with small cells when it is near the axis of revolution. This is shown in the attached figure where the top rows of element are somehow merged. Does anyone have a good solution for this or know why it is...
