Validating the CADFEKO Model

During the design process, the development of a model can introduce a range of issues that can lead to a non-simulation-ready model. Use the validation toolset to verify that the model is simulation-ready or to search, detect and flag discrepancies.

Use the validation toolset to verify the following:

Fix the settings of an item in the model that is unresolved or invalid (suspect item).
Verify that the windscreen is defined correctly by viewing the thickness of the individual layers.
Verify that the mesh is connected.
Use display options to colour regions and faces according to their media.
Use display options to highlight the relevant geometry with a specified solution method.
Search for clashing geometry.
Search for distorted, intersecting and oversized mesh elements.
Use cutplanes to cut through a model to view inside the model.
