Error description

• ABSTRACT: WHEN PERFORMING AN ANALYSIS THE CATIA RETURNS
  "GENERIC NAMING GRAPH ERROR"
  
  Abstract: EPMR: Cannot perform a FEA on a V5R4 sheetmetal part
  .
  Operating System:  WindowsNT Intel V4 SP4
  .
  Problem Description:
  I have here a V5R4 sheetmetal part.
  When I try to perform a Finite element analysis using
  Generative Part Structural analysis (GPS), I get an
  error: "Generic Naming graph error"
  It was working in V5R4 SP3.
  
  - Open supplied Sheet Metal part within V5R6.
  - Apply any material (ex Aluminum)
  - Clamp 1 on 2 faces on the side and apply a load to the surface
  in the middle. You cannot click the surface
  - Start computation and "Generic Naming Graph Error" is
  returned.
  .
  A work around is to extract external surfaces of the part and
  copy/paste into a new part. Close the surfaces using Close
  Surface. Although this works it is not acceptable because the
  associativity is broke to the Sheet Metal part.
  .
  

Local fix

Problem summary

•  INCIDENT DIAGNOSIS:
  WHEN PERFORMING AN ANALYSIS THE CATIA RETURNS GENERIC
  NAMING GRAPH ERROR
  

Problem conclusion

• THIS PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED ON
    CATIA VERSION 5 RELEASE 8 GA level.
  NOTE THAT THIS PROBLEM WILL ALSO BE FIXED ON V5R7SP05.
  
   TECHNICAL EXPLANATION FOR THE CORRECTION:
  One of the face had a bad "surface stamp"
  
   ANSWER AND POSSIBLE BY-PASS:
  The part had to be repaired and was sent with the pmr.
  The code also had be modified since there was a problem
  with the generation of "surface stamp".
  

Temporary fix
