Hello Christophe,
Thank you very much ! It works quite well. But now i am facing another problem where I think I am not the first, but google doesn´t give very helpful informations. After meshing I then want to use Calculix. Do you have any experiences or reccomendations about the file interchange format? As far as I have read I create a Abaqus Input deck which is slightly different from Calculix. Are there any hints or free translators?
