We’re putting the final touches on our new badges platform. Badge issuance remains temporarily paused, but all completions are being recorded and will be fulfilled once the platform is live. Thank you for your patience.

Hi Ethan,

 

Can you give more clarification or APDL commands which you used? Why do you need TARGET170 element on the line? is it in contact with other 1d elements? Normally first you should generate mesh on line (probably beams?) and then define contacts.
