Limitations and remarks
Introduction
This section presents the limitations and remarks concerning the HyperMesh (and OptiStruct) and SimLab mesh import.
Other possibilities
- Shell mesh import without air box (surface elements) or with air box (surface and volume elements)
- 2D mesh import (& complete infinite box) in Flux 2D
Remarks and limitations
- Only one import is allowed
- In case of 2nd order mesh import, the "complete infinite box" algorithm renumbers the 2nd order nodes. This limitation is to take into account for coupling
- The "complete infinite box" algorithm works after mesh import with MeshGems mesher (mesher by default), but it does not work with Delaunay mesher
- In case of remeshing (mesh lines / faces / volumes / domain) or deleting the mesh, the imported mesh is preserved as long as the "mesh object" exists
Limitations linked to the method
- It is impossible to parametrize a mesh imported with geometrical parameters
- It is impossible to enter in the Modeler context (also deleting the mesh)
