FEA with CATIA V5 - mesh creation

[DanTran]

Hi All,
Does anybody know if an Analysis file can create mesh automatically on a new component added to the linked Producct file?
I tried this, but it did not create mesh for the new components and it ignored the newly added components in the simulation.
I had to create a new Analyis file and start pre-processing all over again.

Any advice/tips is appreciated.
Thank you!

I don't think so. any new component added to a CATProduct file needs to be remeshed and "linked" to the other parts. You should be able, in the same CATAnalysis file as previously to mesh the new parts without having to recreate an whole new CATAnalysis file.

At least, that is what I usually do.
