In a pipeline of 28 km, to pass a buried pipe gives me the following error:
"Too many soild supports needed for the model. Please break the model down and use the large include"
How can you do to separate the model number and perform a single analysis?
thanks for the help
 
Personally, I normally identify where all of my changes of direction are, calculate the virtual anchor length manually, and then I only model somewhat more than that distance of the pipeline on either side of the change of direction.

Regards,

SNORGY.
