Hello everyone
I am trying to simulate C beam using design modeler
I used share topology option to merge the flanges with the web of the C beam as shown in pic no1

I don't use design modeler (I use SpaceClaim), so I'm not sure, but that just looks like an artifact of how Ansys displays things when you have the display/style setting "Thick Shells and Beams" turned on. If you turn that off, I'm guessing that the mesh will look ok. It's still a good idea to run a few test cases to make sure the model is behaving how you expect it to.
