Nice Greeting....
I am try to sweep a part of the mesh, and then use that mesh as a tamplet to write the input file and generate the mesh by using the ABAQUS keywords, but I faced a problem that the nodes pattern changed due to sweep...could you please assist me to figure out how could I generate that mesh by use *Node,*NGEN, *ELEMENT....(I need to sweep the mesh because I am using infinite element)?
Dear Hiba
Please try "Do not increase or decrease the node number during meshing" option available in the "options" tab of "define local seeds" command. It will convert all the nodes symbols from triangles to sqares and will restrict node numbers to change while meshing the part once the seeds have been defined. No matter you sweep the part later.
Please tell me if you find the above mentioned command or I will send you the sequential of screenshots to turn this command on from interactive mode of ABAQUS. I will have to look into documentation for the same command in keyword edition but I can sure assist you with the solution. Please tell me if you need any further help.
