[CIG-SEISMO] Error with building geometry in Cubit

[s.khan at utwente.nl]

Dear All,


I am getting this error when I try to create volume by healing six surfaces. The surfaces are extracted through imprint following the same procedure adopted in MtSt Helens example. I was using the same procedure and techniques and was working fine. But with this one model, I am facing this problem. I try splitting, uniting, sweeping etc. but non worked. In some cases I got away and constructed mesh but then it has negative jacobian and bad surfaces.

Is there any way I could get through with this problem. I am using high resolution topography and therefore the features are sharp. The Cubit version is 13.0.

The error is :
============================================
CUBIT> create volume surface all heal
Preserving undo information...done
Healing the combined volume...
Healed the combined volume to 100% good geometry.
Bad surface-surface intersections
ERROR: ACIS error number 94004 intersection failure
ERROR: New volume creation failed.
============================================

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Saad Khan
