Duplicate Elements
(OP)
Is there an easy way to assess a model to determine if there are any duplicate elements (i.e. 2 elements lying on top of each other)
thanks

RE: Duplicate Elements
One way is to use the command NUMMRG,ELEM,,,SELE. But this works only if the elements are identical.
Another way is to program a macro with APDL, see the commands: *DO, ESEL, NSLE, ESLN.

RE: Duplicate Elements
This works for shell elements.
Turn OFF element outlines. /edge command
Then do an eplot. Duplicated elements will show element outlines when you have element outlines turned off.
