Dealing with an Orphan Mesh

Dealing with an Orphan Mesh

Dealing with an Orphan Mesh

(OP)
Hello all,

I am trying to learn as much as I can about Orphan meshes and what my options are in dealing with them. I have an orphan mesh and I would like to add a part into the orphan mesh and perform a boolean operation to cut and remove material and add the additional part in its place. I have tried a few operation in abaqus 6.10. Although I can perform the boolean cut and replace operation, the mesh will not update and it seems I have very little options. Does anyone have any advice or experience with this?

Thanks
