Creating geometry sets and surfaces

Next, you can create the geometry sets and surfaces.

Create the geometry sets TOP, BOT, FRONT, BACK, FIX, and OUT as shown in Figure 1. (The set OUT contains the edge shown in bold in Figure 1.) Create the surface named LOAD shown in Figure 2. These regions will be used later for the application of loads and boundary conditions, as well as for the definition of output requests.
