Hi,
I am wondering if it is possible to mesh a plate in Advanced Meshing Tool (one mesh for the whole plate). And then apply different material properties to different sections?
Say I have a 1x2m plate and I want the thickness of half the plate to be 10mm and half to be 15mm. Do I have to create two different meshes and apply the two 2D-properties to those seperatly?
In Abaqus this would be done by making two Sets of Elements and creating two Section Assignment referencing those sets.
kind regards
K
