The concrete will be casted around the outer boundaries of the pipe. In order to &#8220;wrap&#8221; the concrete block around the pipe I have modelled the block as an enclosure. However, this is not suitable when running the analysis in Ansys Mechanical. Is there a way to convert such an enclosure to a solid? Or maybe a better way of achieving what I have want to do?<\/p>\n<p>See the attached picture.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/10\/03-10-2022-1664786228-Screenshot.PNG\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-236871","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-3d-solids-1","topic-tag-circular-pipe","topic-tag-concrete","topic-tag-enclosure","topic-tag-meshing-enclosure","topic-tag-spaceclaim"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["208645","240"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.48.209.148"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["2413"],"_bbp_likes_count":["1"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["236871"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27789"],"_bbp_engagement":["240","208645"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["8"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["237011"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["237011"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2022-10-05 08:09:24"]},"test":"tortjubystol-no"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/236871","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/236871\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=236871"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
