PrePoMax is an open-source pre- and postprocessor for (also open-source) finite element analysis solver CalculiX. It's extremely user friendly and doesn't even require installation. PrePoMax can be used only on Windows.
In this tutorial I would like to show you how to connect an edge of a shell part with a surface of a solid part.
Note: swapping surface assignments in tie constraint definition may resolve the issue with spurious stress distribution
