Project 1 - 2D meshing on the instrumental Panel

Aim:- To study the given component and to take out the mid surface and mesh it with the given mesh parameter.

Procedure:-

Import the model in to ansa then after perform basics topology operation on the component. we need to perform the geometry check in order to find out any missing or any deviated surface need to fix them

As shown in the above imagethe ip console was imported and topo opreation was perform on it, after geometry check up the all the variable thickness was measured indiviually to get an idea for mid surfacing.

As shown in the above image the random measuring was carried out for ribs, surface etc. Once it was done mid surface was created for the component.

Here the cylindrical object is captured in this form and the thickness of the mid surface was given by value of dia for cylinder divided by 4 that will its thickness.

Before starting the meshing the mesh parameters are provided then the length of the grid is provided according to the size of the target element length.

New Learnings and Outco

Learned the midsurfacing of big component like ip console having the complex features.

Learned the midsurfacing for the solid cylinder.

Learned new tricks to take out the mid surface for the complex geometry through the help ogf curves command.

Conclusion:- From this project i have learned new techniques to carried out the mid surface. From this project i would like to conclude that the midsurface for any component plays an important role if proper midsurface is carried with good defeaturing the meshing would become more easier and save lot of time.
