Hi Lydia,

I couldn’t sweep it at all, so I decided to split the body into a 300 nm sheet (contains the holes) and a 25 um sheet (substrate to which the 300 nm sheet is bonded to), then extract the midsurfaces for a shell mesh. The quality of my mesh greatly improved, but i’m experiencing another issue: I can’t contact match the nodes at all. I’ve bonded the midsurfaces, but when I try contact matching, I’m not able to select the faces of interest. Here are a couple photos describing my issue.
