orphan mesh,offset mesh and assigment section problem

orphan mesh,offset mesh and assigment section problem

(OP)
Dear users,

I would like to make a simply fluid cavity filled with water.I made a extruded shell part and mesh with surface element, create an orphan mesh ,edit mesh and made a offset mesh external (create solid layers- continuum elements) so as to close the fluid cavity, which is my biggest problem now.

My Fluid cavity mesh is made of:
Total number of elements: 200
100 linear quadrilateral elements of type SFM3D4
100 linear hexahedral elements of type C3D8R

There I create a section type shell surface and assigned section using the element set. I ran my job and the message error tells me that: The elements have been identified in element set ErrElemMissingSection, of course 100 missing property definitions.


Well, I think that I can not select or make the set with 2 kind of them. I would appreciate if you could help me or give an idea!

Regards and thanks in Advanced

BUBA
