Re: Feko Help

Go into CADFEKO and select your mesh in the tree. Then go to menu item:

Find - Find in whole model - free mesh triangle edges.

CADFEKO will highlight the edges of triangles that are not shared with other triangles, so if you see such an edge where it should be a shared edge, you've found the problem.

Else... in POSTFEKO click on the "Find" button (The binoculars on the left). Type the number of the triangle that error reports into the "Triangles" box and click "Search" to find the triangle.

Re: Feko Help

Do the sides of honeycomb cells touch? If so... did you remember to use the union operator? Select all elements of the honeycomb in the Geometry tree and click "Union". Then remesh and see what happens.

In CADFEKO you can also select the mesh in the "Meshes" tree and use the following menu item to find out where the intersecting problems are:

"Find - Find in whole model - Intersecting mesh triangles"

You can then zoom into the area with the problem and fix the geometry problems that cause the intersecting triangles.
