Product: Abaqus/CAE
Benefits: You can now specify the range of the node and/or element labels of a native part or of selected independent part instances in the assembly. This allows you to have a consistent node and element labeling for your parts and simplifies collaboration between engineers working on separate parts that will be assembled before being analyzed by Abaqus.
Description: The Edit Mesh toolset now allows you to change the node and/or element labels of a native part or of selected independent part instances in the assembly. You enter the start labels, and Abaqus/CAE changes the node and element labeling while preserving the original order and incrementation. You can change the labels before or after Abaqus/CAE generates the mesh. Figure 126 shows the Global Numbering Control dialog box.
