Assignment 1-2D Meshing Challenge

Obkective: To carry out the geometry cleanup operation on the given 3 files. To make surfaces free of any free edges, convert all of them into refine geometry. Also,

• Clean the geometry.
• Extract midsurface.
• Clean midsurface geometry.
• Ignore holes less than dia 5mm.
• Create 2D mesh with target length 5mm, min 3.5mm max 7mm.
• And assign proper thickness, by creating a generic property and then Save in .hm format.

Procedure:

Step 1: Geometry Cleanup

• Click on Import Solver Deck in upper left corner of Standard toolbar. Under Import model tab select import and browse for file directory.
• Clean the geometry using F11 or quickedit under Geom Tab

Step 2: Midsurface Extraction: Created from Skin offsets.

Step 3: Cleaning midsurface geometry

Step 4: Create 2D mesh with target length 5mm, min 3.5mm max 7mm.

Step 6: Assigning 2mm thickness, by creating a generic property.
