Hi,

I have a problem with the drawing that i do in SolidWorks. I am kinda new at it so I am a bit confused. I want to draw one quarter of a solid sphere. Actually, its not a sphere but we can consider it as a sphere. I drew quarter of a circle and two lines starting at the end points of quarter circle and intersects at the center of the circle then i revolved it for 180 degrees. It was actually what i wanted. However, I exported it as parasolid then imported it into Ansys. In Ansys, I noticed that the tip points of the quarter sphere are not on the axises. They are like 10E-16 or 10E-18 units away but not exactle zero (not exactly on the axis). This may look tolerable but it is not actually. Does anyone have any idea about how i can fix this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Can
