Hi Guys,

I am looking at creating a composite structure in GID and I am not sure how to mesh it with a structured 20 node brick mesh since I cant seem to get the structure correctly modeled.

What I am trying to do is a cylindrical fiber inside a cube. So that the cylinder can have one material property and the cube that surrounds it will have nother type of material property.

Any ideas on how I could do this?

Thanks

Can create all top surfaces with 4-sides, and create the 6-sided volumes by extrusion.
