Hello friends

How and where can we define to change a component shape to another?

For example I want to model a flang whit this description(2" - WN - class 150) but casar models a valve in graphic view.

Thanks anyone

A flange is a rigid element in CAESAR II. CAESAR II plots rigid elements in one of three different ways:

1 - if the rigid weight is left blank or set to zero, the element plots as a straight line.
2 - if the weight is greater than zero, and the length is less than the diameter, the element plots as a flange pair
3 - if the weight is greater than zero, and the length is greater than the diameter, the element plots as a valve.

The visual plotting of the element does not affect the computations. A rigid element is just that, "rigid".

Thank you Richard I learnt much things from you.

But I want know can we change Caesar's setup for canging component shaps?
If yes, how?

Thanks

Sorry, but no you can't change the shapes.
