  - Connection manager operations
  - Assigning mass to a node

Week 07 - Introduction to Batch Meshing/Casting

Week 08 - Introduction to Morphing Basics

In this module, you will learn about a few morphing techniques in ANSA.
ANSA allows a full-fledged morphing menu that is completely integrated with ANSA's interface.
The functions of the morphing menu can be used to efficiently re-shape both FE and/or geometry-based models.
You will study the following topics in this module.
- Direct morphing
- Box morphing
- Hatches
- Morphing in FE model
- Morphing in CAD geometry
