Hi friends,
I want to export mesh in STL format. I want to draw 3D hollow cylinder, but I can not draw hollow cylinder in mesh. Can anybody guide me how to draw hollow cylinder in mesh not in solid?
Thanks in advance,
Ram

Maybe try the REVSURF command. It will create a cylinder mesh rather than a solid.

But I thought you wanted a cylinder that's a mesh instead of a solid?
What do you mean by hollow cylinder? Are you trying to create a tube?
Can you be more specific about what you're trying to create?

hi,
I want to create pipe and export it in STL (ASCII) format. I want to import this in LIGGGHTS ( simulation software for granular research). I need that cylinder in triangulates so that pressure data can be written on it. Did you understand my problem?
Thanks for help..
