Creating a cylinder - revolution or extrusion?
Creating a cylinder - revolution or extrusion?
(OP)
Hello, I am using Abaqus as part of a project for modeling bone fluid flow. To begin with, I am creating a cylinder that represents an osteon. I have two questions regarding this.
1) Is there a reason to create a rectangle and use revolutions as oppopsed to creating a circle and using extrusion?
2) (this partially answers the above question) When I do use a rectangle and revolution, I end up with a line on the cylinder, parallel to its axis on its exterior. Is there any way to remove this line?

RE: Creating a cylinder - revolution or extrusion?
Both the methods are equivalent. Why do you want to remove the line. The line represents an edge.
