I want to import an STL file (already composed of meshes) like the above in SpaceClaim, simplify the model through Shrinkwrap, and then perform an analysis.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

However, when performing an analysis, the following error occurs and the analysis does not proceed.<\/p>\n

The mesh generation did not complete due to poor quality elements or incorrect input. Please try meshing with another mesh method or different mesh options.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I think it is probably trying to re-mesh the model as a solid and failing.<\/p>\n

How can I use the mesh of an STL file as is (as shell elements) rather than remeshing it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-372825","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-meshing","topic-tag-stl","topic-tag-stl-import","topic-tag-stl-to-ansys-2"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
