    MSC Nastran sol200 Topology optimization through Femap

    I am using Femap v2301 and MSC Nastran 2019. When I try to do a sol200 optimization, the option for topology seems to be grayed out. Is Femap unable to make a topology input deck for MSC Nastran?

    Femap slice solid

    Dear Femap users, Recently I tried to slice a solid and make a tet-mesh out of the geometry, but for some reason femap did not create a face at the plane of the slice. This makes the solid not enclosed and I am unable to create a tet mesh. Anyone know what went wrong, and how to fix this?
