Geometry > Body > Connect > Fuse

Dialog Box

This tool is used to connect the bodies that intersect, penetrate, or lie within the gap tolerance.

  • Preserve internal faces

    This toggle will be enabled only when two bodies are selected. When this toggle is turned ON, the internal faces of the first selected body will be preserved.

Note:
  • Fuse also supports Tri6 element.
  • The mid node position will be preserved in the output except along the connection area.
  • Combination of both Tri3 and Tri6 elements are not supported.
