Hi!
I would like to make new nodes on a plate so i can build a new plate, see attatched picture. Can someone help me with that please? I was hoping to extend that plate and click where to i want to extend but cant find a function as such.
I am not sure if I understand the issue correctly. Please attach that model if possible and let me know the exact plate numbers which you want to join.
I see, i did it like this, with trial and error to get a decent accuracy, by meshing the plate i want to join to in order to create some nodes to attatch to, is this the way to do it or?
There is no automated tool to do that. Basically, in this case you would need to create a new plate considering those new nodes. Make sure that the plate on the right side is also divided into at least 2 segments to share the common corner nodes with the plate which is connecting it. Only such connectivity will maintain a proper forces transfer.
