I need it to be a beam type for further calculations in Aqwa.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m aware that with APDL you can create a tapered cross section and then assign it to a line. Is there any way to do this in Design modeler or Space claim? Can I run the APDL code inside DM or SC??<\/p>\n<p>Thank you very much.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/06-12-2022-1670332821-mceclip0.png\"><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/12\/06-12-2022-1670332852-mceclip1.png\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-243110","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["258380","58821","13632"],"_bbp_author_ip":["96.7.74.191"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_bbp_likes_count":["1"],"_btv_view_count":["3847"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["243110"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["13632","58821","258380"],"_bbp_voice_count":["3"],"_bbp_reply_count":["4"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["243581"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["243581"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2022-12-09 16:15:08"]},"test":"javier-medina-galeraalumnos-upm-es"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/243110","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\/243110\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=243110"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
