Hello,


I am wondering if anyone has any great tips how to avide the duplicating nodes or elements.

I did some browsing and i found node duplicate tool, but it only identify them. How can I fix then, i did fine remesh around connections but it still does not fix the problem.

I am doing a shell static analyises with fastened conection property.



Thanks.

you need to 'condense' in order to avoid duplicate node.
open the option in the panel near the condense line and make sure you condense with appropriate element(s)

Are you really talking about Kinematics [ponder]

No, I am talking about the FEM analysis. But in error message it writes "10 Kinematic elements have 10 duplicate nodes".


And what do you mean with "condense"


thanks!
