Note

The order in which the interface zones is selected matters because of how the offset is computed.

Make the first interface zone periodic 1 and second interface zone periodic 2.

Otherwise, you may get the error: Cannot intersect two interfaces.

To access the interface dialog shown in the above video, make sure "Period 1" and "Period 2" are labeled as interfaces under Boundary Conditions.

 Once you do this, a section called "Mesh Interfaces" appears in the tree. Double click this. In the window that opens, click "Manual Create" at the bottom.

This opens the window that is shown in the above video. Follow the steps of the video from here.

 

Also: If you named both quadrilateral surfaces, but only one is now appearing in the Setup stage, rename them "surface 1" and "surface 2".
