    Solid from surfaces? and selection question

    Hi I need to find a way to "solidify" surfaces. I have a completely closed surface, made of several surfaces. It passes a healing and a joining, but I don't know how to make a proper solid from it. another question, how do I select a chain of curves (especially tangent ones)? for instance...

    Please help with MSC Random

    Hi I need to run a random vibration analysis of a composite structure. Since I don't want to go intot he bdf (input) file, I want to use the patran gui - what was once msc/random, and is now part of the patran tools. if anyone can please write a simple walkthrough, I'd be extremely greatful...
