Axisymmetric Analysis: Abstraction Shapes and FEM Reps

In Abaqus there is a direct relationship between geometry and the final meshed shape: if we want to defeature or do an axisymmetric analysis, the geometry needs to be modified. On the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, this is not the case. The geometry can remain unchanged. Discover more in the latest blog from Christine Obbink-Huizer.
