[ICEM] Matter about Periodicity

newbie384 · February 28, 2014, 15:11

Hi

I defined rotational periodicity and picked the vertices to create boundaries. When I view the relationship of periodicity of nodes after creating mesh, I found that some of the nodes show periodic relationship but some do not show (the nodes on Y block). Is there something wrong with my mesh? or it is just the way ICEM behave? I would appreciate if someone could kindly advice. I also attach picture to describe my problem.

Hi newbie384,

take a look to this thread:

Hi

Thank you very much for the link. It is really very helpful.
I missed the point of selecting the same vertex twice at the rotation axis when creating periodicity in ICEM.
