We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hello,

In a Static Structural analysis the Hydrodynamic Pressure object can only map pressures from one structure in the hydrodynamic model.

If the hydrodynamic model contains many structures, then Direct mapping must be used. You can select faces from multiple structures in the structural model, but the mapped pressure values can only be derived from one structure in the hydrodynamic model.

If you have separate modules in the hydrodynamic model, and you are mapping on to separate modules in the structural model, then I suggest you carry out a separate Static Structural analysis for each module.

I hope this helps.

Mike
