How to join honeycomb and skin in ansys apdl for sandwich structure

AI Thread Summary
To join honeycomb core and face sheets in ANSYS APDL for a sandwich structure, users are encountering errors when attempting to mesh using Shell 281 for the skin and Shell 181 for the core. The primary issue arises from the inability to mesh Shell 281 due to mid-point node errors. Suggestions include verifying the geometry and ensuring proper alignment of nodes between the core and skin. Additionally, users are seeking recommendations for alternative elements suitable for the skin of a honeycomb sandwich beam. Effective resolution of these meshing issues is crucial for successful modeling.

I modeled honeycomb core and face sheet seperately now i want to add or glue them to make a sandwich but it shows error so how can i join them.anyone please

I think you need to give more information?
 
My first problem has been solved i draw face sheet above the core,but when i am using shell 281 for skin and shell 181 for honey comb core which i found best for the purpose the meshing is not achieved in case of shell 281 for skin many errors are coming like mid point nodes cannot be meshed.can anyone pls tell me which element i choose for skin of a honeycomb sandwich beam.its urgent.thanks in advance
 

Thread 'Questions about the Tesla turbine'

Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...

Thread 'Where is my curb stop?'

My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
