Hi,
I'm trying to create an isomesh element for a solid which is irregularly shaped. However, there is always the error message saying the solid is not isoparametric, therefore unable to mesh using isomesh.

1) Would like to know how to get an isoparametric object from an irregular shaped solid. The reason why i want to use isomesh is because i want to have a wedge element.

2) Another qn, is that i understand, solid element does not undertake moment forces, so how do i go abt simulating a moment force when i have solid elements?
