    cannot mesh few surfaces

    guys, I am working on a complex model with approximately 2000 surfaces. The problem is I can see few unmeshed surfaces after I use default meshing in Femap. If I try to manualy mesh the unmeshed surface, it does not work. The surface has meshing attributes. Any comments or sugessions ?? ...

    Element type & attributes

    Thanks trainguy, I created a shell type property by MODEL > PROPERTY > ELEM/PRPT >> PLATE/AXISYMMETRIC SHELL < and chose a thickness for the shell. then activated the property and getting same problem while assigning attributes by clicking GEOMETRY < right click > > ATTRIBUTES > .. PLATE/SHELL...

    Element type &amp; attributes

    Hey, I am making some surfaces from points > curves and then surface by taking {edge curve}. Whenever I try to assign any property it goes to solid element. I am creating surfaces and I do not know why it is going in solids. Any recommendation or suggessions ? .... Thanks

    Duplicate grid error

    Thanks Spirit, I am actually meshing automatically just by controlling the size. Not defining manually. What can be the best way to mesh it ? .. manually for each surface ?

    Duplicate grid error

    Hi I am working on a Femap model and trying to mesh with little coarse elements because of my computer memory limitations. I am basically deleting the old mesh and redefining the new and I am getting this error message "DUPLICATE GRID POINT REFERENCE NOT PERMITTED FOR ELEMENT TYPE" and the...

    Analysis error

    Hey, finally I was able to run. Actually it was stupidity of me. I should press F5 (or Analyse>run) after getting in NEi window.

    Analysis error

    In tutorial, there is an example of bracket buckling analysis. I am trying that one to learn the basics of this software. After creating the model in accordance with the steps given in tutorial, I am analysing it by giving stepwise procedure in the tutorial file. I am attaching the image of what...
