Hi,
I am trying to import point clouds or stl files into Ansys for modal analysis. Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this without spending a great deal of time in Imageware or Unigraphics creating a solid model that can be imported in as a parasolid. I am looking at some type of software that will read in a STL file and convert it to a solid or read it into Ansys as a meshable part for running a modal analysis on it. Mike
