    thread799-326769 Hi guys.. I too have this problem stated in the previous thread " the imported part contains imprecise geometry partioning and quad/hex meshing using the medial axis algorithm may fail on imprecise parts". But i ignore those and continue with my simulation. Is it much...

    Hi all I have two surfaces in my model to be joined together.. Now i am using a tie constraint to join those surfaces. But i would like to weld these surfaces at specific spots to make the simulation still realistic. Came across a keyword *FASTENER in Manual. Can anyone give an idea on how it...

    Creating edge and node sets in Abaqus using Python

    Thanks a lot mate.. Have to learn a lot from the scripting.. I have another doubt . I have 2 node sets created in part level. Is it possible to put those 2 sets as a single set of nodes in assembly level. Cant able to find any keywords doing it. Thanks

    Creating edge and node sets in Abaqus using Python

    Hi mustaine3 Still it doesnt work fine with this "findat" command. Especially this line x = i.edges.findAt((1,0,0),) when i give my coordinates it doesnt have any geometric entity in it.. I am trying to find it using an "getbyboundingbox" command. Thanks

    Choosing faces works fine with "findat" command. But not with edges.. Dono the reason though

    Creating edge and node sets in Abaqus using Python

    Hi guys I have not much experience in Python scripting for Abaqus. I am importing an step file from catia to Abaqus. I want to create edge and node sets for applying boundary conditions. I came across an "findat" option to do it.. But i am not successful with it. Is there any other option of...
