Natalie2210 Member Join Date: Feb 2013 Posts: 30 Rep Power: 13	Hi everybody, I have a rather strange problem, namely, I have a 3D geometry but I want to perform a 2D simulation based on it. It would be a start if I could use the setSet or a similar utility to extract only my boundary faces (at one side) and use that as my 2D mesh, but I really don't know how to start - has anyone done this before? Or is there another way to get a 2D geometry? Thanks a lot, Natalie
