Hi All,

I am trying to run a static structural simulation although the solution will not run. An error keeps occurring and no information is within the solution information, the error states 'At least one body has no elements in it. this may be due to mesh based defeaturing of the geometry. the offending bodies can be identified in the worksheet view on the geometry folder and suppressed if desired'. I cannot determine which body this is referring to.

Has anyone came across this error or has any idea how to tackle it?

Many thanks

Select Geometry from the tree and then Worksheet (top of the screen). In the table sort the bodies by number of nodes so you will see which body has 0 nodes.
 
Thanks for your reply. That's great - I haven't used this feature before, many thanks!
