See picture below. I tried to make a midsurface out of the wires in Spaceclaim but I get an error message (impossible to create midsurface, the faces could not be shifted). Is there another way to mesh these thin wires, like modeling them as 1D beams ?&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks, kind regards.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/10\/30-10-2024-1730295860-mceclip0.png\" \/>&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-392017","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_author_ip":["2001:620:417:2240:79ea:f2d5:7e29:b1b6"],"_btv_view_count":["108"],"_bbp_topic_status":["answered"],"_bbp_subscription":["431745","58821","468266"],"_bbp_status":["answered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["392017"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["58821","431745","468266"],"_bbp_voice_count":["3"],"_bbp_reply_count":["4"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["392099"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["392099"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-10-30 17:48:55"]},"test":"per-pucherhotmail-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/392017","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":1,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/392017\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":392034,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/392017\/revisions\/392034"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=392017"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
