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.

Did you build a model entirely with solid elements and no shell elements?  You can use Shared Topology if you need to change properties between the middle and the ends of the tube. Just make sure to use at least 4 linear element or 2 quadratic elements through the thickness.
