FEM Mesh File Names
When you are working with family tables, or have simplified representations of your model, Creo Simulate uses the following names for your FEM mesh files:
• Part
◦ model.fmp — master representation, or generic instance of a part
◦ model#rep1.fmp — simplified representation of a part
◦ model#inst1.fmp — family table instance of a part
◦ model#inst1#rep1.fmp — simplified representation of a family table instance
• Assembly
◦ model.fma — any representation of assembly
For more information on simplified representations and family tables, search the Fundamentals functional area and the Assembly and Welding functional area of the Creo Parametric Help Center.
