I have done this in the past without issue. I am studying human arteries and blood flow through them. However, the STL file I am using imports the file with the inlet\/outlets as &#8216;invisible&#8217; and treats the entire model as one piece. I have attached a screenshot as an example. Previous artery imports show the artery with thousands of triangular facets, which I merge with the merging tool. I follow the &#8220;3D- Bifurcating Artery&#8221; example from Cornell that has been discussed on this forum.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Any ideas on how I should import this or how to fix it?<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Thanks!<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>John<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-39545","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_old_topic_id":["11724"],"_bbp_old_topic_author_name_id":["Anonymous"],"_bbp_old_is_topic_anonymous_id":["false"],"_bbp_old_closed_status_id":["publish"],"_bbp_author_ip":[null],"_bbp_old_sticky_status_id":["normal"],"_bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["3200"],"_bbp_subscription":["287014"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["39545"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27789"],"_bbp_engagement":["199","240","163465","181589","287014"],"_bbp_voice_count":["5"],"_bbp_reply_count":["14"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["290274"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["290274"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2023-06-26 05:29:31"]},"test":"jtalaman"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/39545","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\/39545\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39545"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
