Hi everyone.

Does anyone here has a lot of experience in setting up a 3d symmetric model from the results of a 2d model? I'm trying to use the *symmetric model generation and *symmetric results transfer. What I have is a rubber boot 2d axisymm model that I have applied internal pressure to. I need to import the results from the pressure step into a new 3d model, generate 3d from the 2d profile & run an angulation test.

I'm pretty certain I did every step mentioned in the documentation, but I can't get my 3d input deck to run. Can anyone here please list a step-by-step guide to setting up this kind of analysis so I can check if I missed something?

thanks on advance,
jo
