Associate free mesh to an existing geometry

Coreform Cubit Meshing

Hi all,

Could you please advise me on how to use the mesh file 2layer.e for a Cubit project I previously created, fariasmesh05.cub5? I want to delete the existing mesh in the Cubit project and replace it with the mesh from 2layer.e.

What I have done so far:

  1. Imported 2layer.e as a mesh with geometry into Cubit.
  2. Disassociated the mesh from each block.

However, I am unsure how to associate the free mesh with the existing geometry from fariasmesh05.cub5. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

2layer.e (1.4 MB)

Hi @kianadmvnd,
that won’t work in cubit. Cubit doesn’t support meshes with hanging nodes.
Also when i import the 2layer.e i get unmerged geometry. Every volume is independent from another.
Importing it as freemesh doesn’t help either, there are some hexes that doesn’t share any node with their neighbours.
