My problem is that I can't seem to get abaqus to change the element status from 1 to 0 for deleted elements. stateNew(k,1) is the...

    meshing: correct use of curvature control over a swept path

    This may seem like a trivial problem but I cannot solve it on my own. I have created a part by extrusion and then by performing a sweep cut along a plane. The part in my model is actually a rigid body so I'm not overly concerned with mesh quality. However I have a small fillet radius which is...
