How to identify which elements have not been assigned sections?

[hilander009]

Hello,

I am trying to model something like the following

except there is no fiber 2. However, it keeps giving me "some elements without any sections assigned". I double-checked and as far as I understand, everything is assigned a section. Someone, please help me out.

PFA the python script that I am working with

You can use color coding to find the elements that are missing section assignment. Also, when you submit the analysis, these elements will be added to set named ErrElemMissingSection.

Open the .odb of the aborted analysis, go into the Display Group and look for the element set that was created with this error.

Or go into the Property-module and use Tools -> Query -> Regions missing section
