11.1 Querying for geometry not associated with a mesh

Product: Abaqus/CAE  

Benefits: You can now query for the cells, faces, edges, or vertices in your part or model that are not associated with a mesh. This enhancement makes it easier to complete meshing your model before you submit an analysis.

Description: The Query Unassociated Geometry query enables you to determine which components in your part or model are not associated with a mesh. You can run the query for individual categories of geometry, such as cells, faces, edges, or vertices. Figure 11–1 shows the Query Unassociated Geometry dialog box. You can save the unassociated geometry to a set. The query does not consider regions that do not require a mesh, such as display bodies and analytical rigid surfaces.
