Export Mesh from CAtia V5 to patran

[franc11]

Hi,

I read in this post thread560-140535 that it was possible to export a mesh from CAtia V5 to a bdf file that can be read by Nastran and Patran.

Anyone knows exactly how to do this? I'm looking for some export data but can't find any.

Thanks!

Hi,

By default in CATIA V5,in Advance Meshing Tools workbench (R15) you can export to bulk data ( .dat file).

The bdf file i don't know... have to check R16 or R17.
