- PROCEDURE FOR MESHING
- Once geometry cleanup is completed meshing is next.
- Some rules of thumb when meshing:
- The mesh should look rather smooth and regular
- Use the simplest element type suited for the problem.
- Start with a coarse mesh and understand the modeling results; then use a finer mesh if needed.
- Try to keep mesh related uncertainties to a minimum if possible. Keep it simple as it can get more complicated on its own.
- The mixed mode element type is the most common element type used due to the better mesh pattern that it produces (restriction: total tria % <5). Sometimes for structural analysis or for convergence and better results for a non linear analysis, the pure quadrilateral element meshing option is selected.
-
- How Not to Mesh
- Back to back triangles should be avoided. Two tria elements should not be connected to each other directly.
- On plane surfaces triangular element should be avoided.
- No mesh transition on constant radius fillets / curvatures
- Circular holes should be modelled carefully with a washer (1.5 to 2 times diameter) and a minimum of two layers around the hole.
- Holes should be modelled with an even number of equally spaced elements: For a better representation of the hole geometry and smooth mesh flow lines, holes should be modelled with an even number of elements (like 6, 8, 12,16 etc. rather than 5, 7, 9 or 13).
- Nodes should lie properly on the surface, with no deviation (and no kinks).
- Follow the feature lines (nodes should lie exactly on the edges).
- Instead of a zig-zag distribution, a structured or smooth mesh is recommended
- For crash analysis, follow the mesh flow line requirement
- For crash analysis, rotating quads are not Recommended.
- For crash analysis, constant mesh size (by using trias) is preferred (due to a minimum element length and a time step criteria).
- PROCEDURE OF MID SURFACE EXTRACTION:
- STEP:1 IMPORT THE MODEL AND VIUALIZE THE 2D TOPO
- STEP:2 CLEAR THE ALL FREE EDGE BY USING THE CUT,RELEASE,DELETE IN HOT POINT AND CONS
- STEP:3 CHECK NO FREE EDGE & 3 SURFACE ASSOCITATED SURFACE LINE
- STEP:4 USE MID SURFACE APPRAPERIATE SELECTION METHOD
- STEP :5 CHECK ANY SURFACE GILITICHES ARE FOUND AND CLEAR IT
- How Not to Mesh
- CHECKING THE MODEL IF UNIFORM THICKNESS OR NOT
- IF more complex part given means divided into small small parts in different PID
- Totally given dash board is divided in to 25 small part and each having the different PID
- MID SURFACE EXTRACTION
- The given part is variable thickness and complex part so,we don't apply the auto mid surface here(like skin,casting,etc..)
- MEASHING
- For meshing more complx part dived in to smallpart as a different pid
- IN same like this mesh the total mid surface
- THEN THE MEASH THE SURFACE BY SURFACE
- UNWANTED TRAIAS AND ROTATIONAL QUADS ARE REMOVED BY USING THE IMPROVE METHOD> USE THE RESHAPE OR RECONSTRACT
- USE THE SMOOTH OPTION THE SMOOTH THE QUAD ELEMNTS
- SHELL AS SLOID
- Give the proper thickness for the feature and mid surface
- TO VIEW THE SHELL SOILD PRESS F11 >GO TO THE PRENSENTATION OF PARAMETR>CHECK THE DRAW SHELL SOILD
- RESULT AND LEARNING OUT COME
- IN this assign-ment we learn the how to mesh the such complex part in automobile like dash board
- how to mesh the part by part and how to get feature
- how to use the mesh parameter and meshing feature in mehsh module etc..
