[ICEM] ICEM mesh to ADINA

Streamlet · April 12, 2011, 04:56

Hello all
I want to output a icem mesh to adina by the format of nastran. When I input the nastran file I don't know how to set the boundary conditions, because there are not any face information about in adina, If I need do some settings in icem ? Can anyone tell me the right process? Many thanks!

Parts in ICEM CFD typically come across as something you could hook a boco too.

I see that we can output to ADINA directly from ICEM CFD. I guess it has limited support, which usually indicates that users can setup the bocos in the solver...

If you are using the Nastran format to export from ICEM CFD, then you could set loads, constraints, etc. using those tabs. If those tabs are not already visible, make sure you have set the "settings => Product" to something with FEA and then restart ICEM CFD...
